Work-life balance

Work-life balance

Research proves that work-life balance is one of the conditions for maintaining health, well-being and satisfaction with life and work. In turn, the imbalance between the two spheres can lead to frustration, burnout and even to a significant deterioration in health due to overload with duties and the effects of chronic stress. The following test will show you how well you manage to maintain this balance in your daily life. From the feedback you will receive after completing the test, you will also find out which areas of your working life make it easier for you and which hinder your work-life balance. You will also find suggestions on what you can do to improve the situation and thus increase the comfort of your life. When answering questions, assess your current situation realistically and honestly. Try to give quick answers without thinking too long. Only then will the obtained results and conclusions be valuable to you. Good luck!
