Abstract This paper analyses the implementation of work-life balance measures by companies and discusses their links with certain business features (such as area of activity, company size and the proportion of female employees) using linear regression techniques. The results of a survey conducted on companies from various sectors based in the Basque Country highlight that it is businesses in the services sector and larger companies that tend to provide more work-life balance measures. In addition, there tend to be fewer work-life balance measures in female sectors. This may be related to the job insecurity of the women involved.
