Extension employees do an excellent job managing
multiple roles at work, at home and with extended family and friends, but sometimes we all
need a little help balancing these realistically. Extension systems throughout the United
States are experiencing many changes. Restructuring, redirection and issues of
accountability are some of the things that they face everyday. These changes can result in
lengthier involvement at work. At the same time, we and our families need attention
and quality time.
As an Extension employee, you need to be aware that your personal life may cross with your professional life. In many communities, especially if you are in the public eye, you may be viewed as always on the job. What can you do to help balance work and your personal/family life?
