title: Human resources. Happy families or snap?
abstract: Family-friendly initiatives are popular with staff, but little research has been done to determine their effect. Employers should ask staff what sort of schemes would be most useful to avoid wasting managers' time. Under half the employers surveyed offered creches, nurseries or holiday play schemes. Where they are offered, they are very popular with staff. Employers should specify what they offer in advertisements for staff.
