Therefore, new challenges are emerging for Polish organizations in the field of work-life balance related to the organization of work and working time and the expectations of employees. The selection of CSR tools should be a response to the needs of diverse employee groups.

The first part of the paper is theoretical and was based on a literature analysis of the main issues and assumptions of the concept of corporate social responsibility in relation to employee issues. The second part is the presentation of the results of the survey. Its purpose was to obtain information on the expectations of employees of different generations towards the organization in terms of facilitating the reconciliation of professional and personal life.
