Finding the perfect balance

00:16

“Is there a formula for balancing life with a job you love?” Well, if it exists, I'm still looking for it.

00:25

I'm not sure there is one.I think it's a constant search for balance, not easy to find.

00:36

Sometimes I manage it quite well, other times not at all.

00:40

I think it's always evolving.I love my job, I genuinely enjoy it.

00:48

I give it far more time than I'm asked to.Sometimes situations just need more time.

00:56

I try to recover and rebalance however I can.I think to work calmly and stay focused,you need to take breaks whenever you can.

01:09

I do it whenever I can.I know there are moments when you just can't and others when you can push a bit more.

01:19

I'm lucky to work for an airline,traveling is my way to unwind. I love learning,so studying never feels like a chore.

01:35

I don't think there's a magic or universal formula.

01:39

Everyone has to adapt it to their own needs, and over the years,the need to take regular breaks from work becomes more and more evident,because once I've recharged, I can give my very best again.

01:54

It goes beyond my personal experience,we try to apply this for our staff, especially those working at the airport, who I'd say have a very heavy commitment in terms of weekly hours rather than shifts, and so on.

02:11

We're working with head office to make sure our people have some support measures that help them balance work and family life,especially for those with children.

02:27

Working from Monday to Sunday, even with proper days off,and still not having time for family, is something the company must keep in mind.

02:40

We've sent a few proposals to head office, which are now being reviewed,including more flexible arrangements and support for those with young children, time-related help as a complement to what the law already provides, is clearly necessary,but so that colleagues, including men as well,can work better and enjoy family life.
