HR Policies Should Promote Work-Life Balance: Vice Prez Naidu
The Vice President, Shri M. Venkaiah Naidu today emphasized the need for maintaining work-life balance and said that equal importance must be given to one’s professional duties and family responsibilities.
Addressing the gathering after launching the book ‘Dr V L Dutt: Glimpses of a Pioneer’s Life Journey’ written by Smt. V L Indira Dutt in Chennai today, the Vice President urged all business leaders to frame their HR policies in such a way that their employees are able to manage their work-life balance easily. “This would not only lead to better performance by employees but would also help in addressing mental health issues which are rising in our society”, he added.
Vice President, Naidu observed that 'at a time when people are facing increasing stress, mental health gains prominence along with physical health'. He emphasised the need for people to spend some time in the lap of nature and participate in outdoor activities as a way to de-stress themselves.
Praising the late industrialist, Shri V L Dutt for having maintained the balance between his family life and the business world perfectly, Shri Naidu said that this should be a lesson to all businessmen and entrepreneurs.
