Social Sustainability
Definitions: The ability of a community to develop processes and structures
that meet the needs of current members and future generations.
1) Benefits: adjusting to family members’ routines, gaining more control over
life, bypassing workplace discrimination, enhancing local social connections,
building shared resources
2) Risks: challenges with building occupational identity (i.e. architect, financial
services), social isolation
3) Builds social capital and engagement if the home-based work is visible (not
atomized or hidden) in the community
