Work-life balance and subjective well-being in romania

An essential element for children's quality of life is represented by the time spent together with their family, especially with their parents. However, for most of the families, the time spent together is quite limited by the work obligations on one side and on the other hand by the household living arrangements. In this paper I will approach the relationship between work-life balance and subjective well-being. The paper will focus on families from Romania in a comparative perspective with the families from other countries of European Union. For this propose, I will appeal to secondary analysis using data for the research European Quality of Life Survey (2011/2012) made by European Foundation for The Improvement of Living and Working Conditions. In the analysis, there will be included indicators referring to family status of subjects, indicators referring to relationship between work and family life, also indicators of subjective wellbeing, like life satisfaction and other evaluation indicators. The theme of this paper is treated from quality of life perspective.
