Preferred term

employment effects on relationships  

Definition

  • A consideration of how employment affects relationships is broad because employment itself varies considerably (by hours, occupational prestige, physical location, and other conditions of the workplace including supervision, flexibility, and financial remuneration) and the effects of employment vary by the type of relationship under consideration (i.e., romantic, parental). Since the advent of industrialization and the consequent separation of domestic spaces and work spaces, work life and personal life have often been seen as separate spheres that did not affect each other.
