“…Work life balance is the compatibility of working life and private life (Nissen & Termer, 2014). But how does the "unbalance" in work and life, such as this "insufficient time and non-achievement in work" and "increased time for private life," affect employees in IT?…”

“…This aspect then loses its importance when their children have become more independent and leave their parents' home. After this, areas such as hobbies, culture and travelling gain increasing interest (Nissen & Termer, 2014).

Due to an unsatisfying demographic development in most European states, companies have to solve a trade-off between a needed increasement of productivity on the other hand and fewer highly skilled employees on the other hand. In this paper, authors propose factors for different layers of a framework to manage scarce resources in IT-departments. These layers aim for different relevant dimensions of employee satisfaction like wages, psychological development of employees and work life balance. Authors present a structured literature review to screen relevant publications on the topic. This paper offers white range of different factors regarding the management of labour shortage and highly skilled employees in companies which can be used to build a holistic model or framework to solve the challenges of the upcoming demographic change in Europe. Although the topic is quite popular in scientific literature, there is not a study devoted to identify these factors in organizational contexts. This paper is aimed to bridge this gap.
