Employees with children are often forced to make calculated decisions regarding workplace interactions, strategically organizing their schedules to balance work and parenting responsibilities.
While these strategies can help manage time effectively, they may lead to feelings of isolation, leaving many parents without close friendships at work or a sense of belonging.
The pressure to perform can cause parents to avoid socializing, like turning down lunch invites or strategically limiting meetings, which ultimately affects workplace relationships.
Both managers and parents can take steps to create a more inclusive work environment that acknowledges the challenges faced by working parents.
