Is technology affecting our work-life balance?The Chartered Management Institute has recently conducted a report entitled ‘The quality of working life’, outlining the influence of technology on employees’ working hours.

Approximately one in five managers say they constantly check their email outside of working hours; with over half (54%) checking frequently. This is particularly common among those in senior management positions. Although not thought to be a negative aspect by all managers, constant email accessibility and digital connectivity do mean relatively longer working hours for some.
