Taking away the need to lieIn the bad old days, working mothers had to learn to lie. Returning to work after having a baby, they had to prove that nothing had changed. On those black days when the child was ill or the childminder did not turn up, it was better to pretend to be sick themselves than to admit to any problem at home. Some people still live like this. But most companies now recognise that employees may have families. They know, in theory at least, that the old way meant their workers were unhappy, stressed out and likely to leave. Yet despite the new family-friendly policies, most should alert your boss to the idea companies are still getting it wrong. At one extreme, individual managers consider that any woman who has a family is not serious; at the other, the new militant working mothers behave as if it is their right to put their families first and let their colleagues cover for them. We need help, and today we are getting some. Cary Cooper, professor of organizational psychology at University Manchester Institute of Science and Technology, is publishing a pamphlet called 'Finding the Balance', containing 10 handy tips on how to balance work and family.First, Prof Cooper says, you should alert your boss to the idea that you have family to look after. You should spell out how much you like your job and how committed you are. You should plan your approach in advance, your thinking about what employer's likely reaction is going to be. When problems arise you should give your employer an idea of how long it is going to take to sort them out, and maybe take some of the time off as holiday. You should suggest a way around the particular crisis that will allow you both to be at home and get some work done at the same time. When you come back you should try extra hard, and then point out to your employer now being flexible has allowed you to deal with the crisis at home, without your work suffering.
