This report summarises findings from the second Australian Work and Life Index (AWALI) survey Tof work-life interaction in Australia. It builds on the findings of the 2007 survey. The core 2008 AWALI survey includes 2831 workers, providing a robust, national, stratified random sample of the Australian workforce. A subset of 1404 respondents answered a further set of questions which in 2008 especially pursue issues related to workplace culture, unsocial work hours and public/private employment. There has been little change in the overall work-life interaction of Australian workers between 2007 and 2008. This is not surprising over such a short period of time.
