Abstract

The paper analyzes work-life balance systems. In addition, each generation has been characterized according to the following criterion: attitudes in the workplace and life priorities, which have become a contribution to the identification of the elements building work-life balance systems. The theoretical analysis has been deepened by the authors’ own empirical research, which was conducted in June 2015 among 185 young professionals/workers representing generation Z. The results made it possible to identify and prioritize the elements included in work-life balance systems and the factors determining their implication in contemporary business enterprises. The article presents a fragment of research based on surveys.
