Description:
The focus of the study is to examine the set of values of family-friendly organizations in Hungary. The study highlights the importance of organizational values as a fundamental part of corporate culture, which can be a major competitive advantage for companies. Values at the organizational level not only influence employees’ behaviour but also play an important role in strategic decision-making. Based on the results of a questionnaire survey carried out in spring 2023, this study demonstrates, which values dominate among organizations with the label Family-Friendly Workplace in Hungary and which are the priorities that influence their decisions. The research is meant to prove that a number of values related to social and environmental sustainability are considered in the basic principles of the organizations involved in the survey. They regard the family, support for families and work-life balance as core values. Beside family-related values, other important principles are included, such as equal opportunities, social responsibility and support for disadvantaged social groups. In addition, environmental sustainability and environmental awareness are strongly reflected in the values of family-friendly organizations.
