I am considering a job in field case management, mostly involving workmans comp. I know I would like the work, as I have done some case management in the past and really liked it, but I have concerns about work/life balance. Does anyone have any advice on this? I have 3 small children, and the job is home based but would involve quite a bit of driving time, going to doctor's appointments, etc. The appeal of setting my own schedule and not being inside all day is very appealing, however I don't want to end up in a situtation where I am working 50 hours every week because no matter how much I like the work, that will burn me out. I was told that more than 8 hour days is not expected. Thank you in advance for any advice.
