JD Bliss Blog Recognizes Law Firms That Promote Work Life Balance

New blog category to report on "quality of life" initiatives at major law firms.

New York, NY (PRWEB) March 9, 2005 -- JD Bliss (www.jdbliss.com), a leading provider of resources to attorneys seeking greater quality of life and career satisfaction, has announced the launch of a new category on its blog to recognize law firms that excel at promoting work life balance. The new category -- called "Work Life Winners" -- will consist of case studies and media coverage of law firms with HR policies that facilitate a greater quality of life for their attorneys, including flexible work schedules, parental leave, emergency childcare, employee assistance programs, and career counseling.

Law firms recently recognized in the "Work Life Winners" category of the JD Bliss blog (http://www.jdbliss.com/e_000065499000053589.cfm) include Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky for the "Quality of Life" section on its website highlighting the firms leadership in creating a family-friendly work environment, and Kirkpatrick and Lockhart for hiring a Director of Professional and Personal Life Integration to help the firms lawyers successfully balance work, family responsibilities, and other life and career changes.

"Lawyering, while lucrative, can be a stressful way to make a living, and firms that acknowledge this reality by proactively accommodating the personal needs of their attorneys should be publicly commended," said Joshua Fruchter, JD Blisss founder and editor-in-chief, and a former attorney. "Citing firms that excel at promoting work life balance will also provide our 20,000+ subscribers with ideas and inspiration for initiating change at their own workplaces."
