Summary/Abstract: Leisure is important after intense working, being part of a community can fulfill the employees’ safety and security feelings, and through work experience, people become more organized and succeed in more aspects of their lives, developing their professional behavior. Also, studies approve that family supports people, gives them feelings of security, stability, and love. Our research indicates descriptive results about the importance of leisure, of community and family (which are specific variables for work-life balance) for 627 proffesionals, from which 418 are employed. The entire sample is triangulated in: employees from multinational companies, employees from Romanian companies, and young researchers. The results indicate that all these categories of respondents achieved a level of satisfaction higher than 70% for the importance of work. Also, for all proffesionals, in the case of family, an average of over 4 points out of 5 was obtained, corresponding to a satisfaction level of at least 80%. The same situation was observed in the case of leisure time. If the employees from multinationals do not place much emphasis on the importance of the community, those from the Romanian companies are more enrolled into this aspect at work. Finally, the young researchers are between extremities.
