Synopsis

Described as a 'practical no-nonsense guide', Working Mothers helps mothers find a bit more flexibility in their life, feel less guilty about working motherhood, and ensures they know their legal rights. Topics discussed include flexible working, maternity pay, childcare, starting your own business and health. Emotional issues such as guilt and making time for yourself are also discussed. Importantly, an entire section is devoted to fathers; paternity leave and flexible fatherhood being among the topics covered. Author Denise Tyler, a mother herself and founder of the online magazine mother@work, says, 'Working mothers are constantly coming under fire in the media and it seems hardly a few months go by without yet another survey about how working mothers would give it all up and stay at home it they could. But what these surveys and the media who report them fail to take into account is that the vast majority of women in the UK don't work because they want to, but because they have to. This book can help you look at your life and isolate things that need working on, to help you get a better work-life balance. Wouldn't it be great just to feel a bit more in control of things' Whether you are already a working mother, or plan to return to work, this book provides all the answers to questions working mothers ask. A list of useful contacts is included. Published by www.need2knowbooks.co.uk.
