20.500.12556/RUL-177579 Work–care reconciliation strategies for a variety of informal carers what works and what does not? Objectives: The aim of this study is to describe and examine reconciliation strategies for reconciling work and informal care that are aimed at different types of working carers (carers of the following: family members with dementia; partners; children under 18; adult children; parents; other family members). Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey to examine structural strategies for a work–care balance throughout the caregiving period, followed by the frequency of the use of strategies in the last 12 months to better understand what is an effective work–care balance strategy for different working carer types. Hierarchical cluster analysis was conducted in February 2025 on 299 working carers drawn from a representative sample of adult Slovenian residents in an online probability panel. Results: The results show five clusters of carers that clearly indicate their use of reconciliation strategies depends on the national context, the work organisation and employees, the family structure, the value orientation of informal carers, and the type of care recipient. Conclusions: A variety of policy measures are needed to enable informal carers to remain active in the labour market while they care for dependent family members and relatives. reconciliation strategies working carers work-care balance strategije usklajevanja zaposleni negovalci ravnovesje med delom in oskrbo true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2025-12-24 12:11:09 2025-12-24 12:11:17 2026-03-03 10:37:21 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 1-25 issue 16, [article no.] 1961 Vol. 13 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 364:331.54 2227-9032 10.3390/healthcare13161961 245343491 healthcare-13-01961.pdf healthcare-13-01961.pdf 1 4D4CB9056A0D88995D786C207DC4567A a8cca0a9787bd40a119eb4ceb79e201240c7dc7aff7e2cab7666513d540350c6 c2abdace-e0b9-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=224677 https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9032/13/16/1961 0 cc5727e5-e0b9-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=224678 Fakulteta za družbene vede 0 0 0
