Our \u201c<strong>always-on&lt;\/strong&gt;\u201d culture means it takes great discipline not to check emails or texts in the evening, at the weekend or on the beach. According to research carried out by Microsoft UK published last October, 56 per cent of us have answered work calls while out of the office.&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;\n\n</strong></span></p><p><span>Combine this with long working hours, and the result is stress, home life under pressure and the risk of <strong>burnout&lt;\/strong&gt;.&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;\n\n</strong></span></p><p><span>In the UK, full-time employees work some of the longest hours in Europe \u2014 an average of 42 hours a week. Yet, according to a 2019 analysis by the TUC, the <strong>umbrella&lt;\/strong&gt; <strong>organization&lt;\/strong&gt; for trade unions, the effort is literally counterproductive. It found employees in Germany worked 1.8 fewer hours but were 14.6 per cent more productive.
