Tony and Lee have looked over the ‘‘pink intake sheet,’’ compiled from the initial telephone interview with the family, and have conversed about the nature of the case. The entire process pertaining to the case, however, has been held in abeyance until the arrival of the family for their first therapy session. Until the family arrives for therapy and begins to define, not only the nature of the problem but also the nature of the family, all other speculations, formulations, and strategies for intervention must be suspended. This process of defining the family by family members during therapy is unique in each case. People involved may include family members who are present and absent, people from their psychosocial environment, and one or more ‘‘helping service agencies.’’ Unlike research or theory in which the theoretician or researcher holds the decision-making capability for defining ‘‘family,’’ during therapy this process is shared by family members and the therapist. Whether done overtly through specific discussion or covertly by inclusion or omission, the process of defining the family has a major impact on the therapy that this family has sought.

The hospitality industry, traditionally characterized by long and erratic work hours, has experienced numerous quality of work life challenges. This study analyzes the concept of organizational commitment as related to personal interferences that conflict with work in a sample of hotel employees. Organizational commitment, in past research, has been positively linked to reduced employee turnover and increased work productivity. Hotel employees were surveyed ranging from entry level hourly workers to managerial levels. An inverse relationship was found between organizational commitment and certain types of work interferences, specifically child care and medical problems. The implications of this research are numerous as hospitality organizations analyze ways to minimize work conflicts and maximize employee organizational commitment.","PeriodicalId":51527,"journal":{"name":"MARRIAGE AND FAMILY REVIEW","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"1998-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1300/J002V28N01_09","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66464371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current trends such as globalization, diversity, and technology are described and their impact on the hospitality workplace assessed. Specific actions that progressive hospitality organizations have taken as they address the need for a more responsive and flexible workplace are presented. Finally, suggestions are proposed for how educators and practitioners might work together to assist employees in increasing their quality of life and in achieving family and work balance. It seems likely that fundamental shifts in the basic assumptions affecting employee policies are necessary before organizational attitudes and practices will result in greater work and family balance for service employees.","PeriodicalId":51527,"journal":{"name":"MARRIAGE AND FAMILY REVIEW","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"1998-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1300/J002V28N01_06","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66464243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
