Summary/Abstract: Policies subsumed under the umbrella of work-life balance respond to both the increasing importance of private life in work and retirement (as explicitly taken up in the concept of workability and employability) andto changes in work-related private needs and motivations, which to a great extent are the result of overall social, demographic and political changes (Naegele et al., 2003).
