This article examines the challenges to incorporate work-family conciliation policies into an overall organizational strategy as a key to social development of countries. Particularly a culture that incorporates in its organizational management the concern for integrating work and family life, simultaneously bringing organizational benefits while reducing absenteeism and increasing productivity and employee commitment. As a contribution to the discussion, we review here the main conceptual and theoretical view of the family, social and labor transformations, its impact created on organizations, precisely on the perception of workers and organizational results. Based on this evidence, it is established that, despite being a topic that needs more development, it is necessary to review public policies upon results, applying the referred measures and researching appropriate solutions to the Chilean context to improve the quality of live in the country.

Keywords : Work; family; organizational policy; coping.
