The Policy Development and Quality of Work/Life Office provides services, programs, and information to assist members of the Penn State community in balancing their professional and personal lives.

National studies show that the best family-friendly employers offer flexible work schedules, telecommuting, child and elder care resources, generous health coverage, sick child days, job sharing, and company-backed groups dedicated to the advancement of women. Penn State is proud to offer these and many other services to its workforce.
