Trends in Time: Work, Family and Social Policy in Australia 1992-2006

该项目将有助于国家优先目标“加强澳大利亚的社会和经济结构，以帮助家庭和个人过上健康，富有成效和充实的生活”，在“促进所有澳大利亚人的健康和福祉”的国家研究优先事项范围内。它将为有效战略提供新的可靠证据，以促进实现减少家庭压力、保持生育率和鼓励妇女从事有报酬工作的政策目标。确定最能支持男子和妇女平衡工作与家庭承诺、花足够时间与子女和社交网络在一起以及最能促进女性参与劳动力的措施，将促进国家福祉。

This project will contribute to the national priority goal of 'strengthening Australia's social and economic fabric to help families and individuals live healthy, productive, and fulfilling lives', within the National Research Priority of 'promoting good health and well being for all Australians'. It will provide sound new evidence for effective strategies fostering the policy goals of reducing stress on families, maintaining fertility and encouraging women into paid work. Identifying measures that most support men and women to balance work-family commitments, to spend adequate time with their children and social networks, and most facilitate female workforce participation, will promote national wellbeing.
