Working Mother’s Jennifer Owens Reacts to Judge’s Ruling Against Working Moms

Jennifer Owens, Working Mother’s editorial director, appeared on ABC’s World News to jump right into a hot debate brought on by a recent ruling by federal Judge Loretta Preska of New York. The ruling, which states that “the law does not mandate ‘work-life balance,’” asserts that making a decision that puts family before work comes with consequences. Owens says this is a step backward because the most productive employees are those who feel engaged both at work and at home.
