Abstract
The problem and the solution. Human resource development (HRD) and work/life share several goals. Both are concerned with ensuring workers are effective and with the “business case” justifying their efforts within organizations. This article develops insights for HRD professionals by drawing on articles identified in the international competition for the Rosabeth Moss Kanter Award for Excellence in Work—Family Research. Specifically, work hours and work overload as well as gender and gender inequity are powerful influences on worker effectiveness. Several exemplary articles also generate important information for the business case for work/life. This article provides access to resources that can support HRD efforts in organizations.
