Work Life Balance in Wales
Chwarae Teg is working in partnership with the Welsh Assembly Government to take forward the Work Life Balance and Flexible Working Initiative in Wales.
Our expertise on work life balance and flexible working, both at a practitioner and policy level, is a culmination of over 5 years work across all sectors and business in Wales. Work is still very much in progress and our priority remains to establish Wales as a modern economy based on flexible working and work life balance practices
