I love learning,so studying never feels like a chore.\n01:35 - I don't think there's a magic or universal formula.\n01:39 - Everyone has to adapt it to their own needs, and over the years,the need to take regular breaks from work becomes more and more evident,because once I've recharged, I can give my very best again.\n01:54 - It goes beyond my personal experience,we try to apply this for our staff, especially those working at the airport, who I'd say have a very heavy commitment in terms of weekly hours rather than shifts, and so on.\n02:11 - We're working with head office to make sure our people have some support measures that help them balance work and family life,especially for those with children.\n02:27 - Working from Monday to Sunday, even with proper days off,and still not having time for family, is something the company must keep in mind.\n02:40 - We've sent a few proposals to head office, which are now being reviewed,including more flexible arrangements and support for those with young children, time-related help as a complement to what the law already provides, is clearly necessary,but so that colleagues, including men as well,can work better and enjoy family life.","_has_trailer":false,"_trailer_vimeo_id":""},"categories":[937],"factorial-categories":[],"class_list":["post-178319","factorial_video","type-factorial_video","status-publish","hentry","category-team-growth"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nIs there a universal formula to balance life and work you love?
