L'intreccio invisibile tra le relazioni familiari e lavorative

The invisible interweaving between family and work relationships In the contemporary social context, people’s life domains are increasingly connected with one another, especially the family and work domains. This interweaving can be adequately understood through a relational conception of the person, who is considered as an unicum despite playing multiple roles ‒ family and professional ‒ and embedded in networks of significant relationships. This contribution will offer a reflection on the topic not by using an individual perspective, but rather, a relational approach, taking into consideration the element of the couple as a mediator between family and work relationship, social capital as a resource both from a family and professional point of view, and exchanges between generations in the two life domains. Moreover, results from the project ‘‘Talents without age” will be presented, a project carried out in 2018 on a sample of 12,746 senior employees aged between 50 and 70 working in 34 Italian companies from different sectors.
