WORKING WOMEN REPORT JOB/HOME CONFLICTS

``Some'' or ``significant'' conflict between job and family is reported by 68 percent of working mothers. One-fourth have a daily conflict, according to a survey by Working Mother magazine. Supervisors who have an employed spouse are almost twice as likely to be accommodating to employees in such cases as supervisors in single-income marriages.

Mothers who work for flexible bosses are more than seven times less likely to want to quit, and four times as likely to say they love their jobs than women working for inflexible bosses.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
