individual has over their work and workload, including when,
where and how they work. The more autonomy individuals have,
the less stressed they are likely to be.

of control over when, where and how you work, leading to being
able to enjoy an optimal quality of life. Work-life balance
is achieved when an individual’s right to a fulfilled
life inside and outside paid work is accepted and respected
as the norm, to the mutual benefit of the individual, business
and society.
