Summary/Abstract: The paper addresses problems of measuring quality of working life, job quality and work-life balance and focuses on providing a comparative analysis using European data (ETUI, EWCS, EUROFOUND). Using multilevel regression analysis, we identified predictors for WLB (work-life balance) and also support for a theoretical critique of the limits and local understanding of work-life balance as a key issue in improving working conditions through policy recommendations.The paper addresses problems of measuring quality of working life, job quality andwork-life balance and focuses on providing a comparative analysis using European data (ETUI,EWCS, EUROFOUND).
