Work life balance policies at EU has been developed in three different stages in order to improve and make work and life conditions more compatible. 1) Gender equality is linked to promoting the sharing of responsibilities between women and men in the private sphere, 2) Is characterised by the link between work-life balance and the labour market and business competitiveness, 3) Work-life balance is again linked to gender equality. Fathers are involved in the sharing of responsibilities. The result of this development is Directive 2019/1158, which has achieved autonomous recognition of work-life balance in the acquis communautaire and includes mechanisms to promote work-life balance. Mechanisms to facilitate the reconciliation of work and family life are included: paternity leave, parental leave and care leave, care leave and force majeure leave, flexible working arrangements for workers who are parents or carers, as well as measures to protect workers in the exercise of their reconciliation rights (employment, discrimination and dismissal).
