It has recently been found out that people with mobile technology such as Blackberries end up working an extra 15 hours a week as it is impossible to stop checking emails even they’re out of workplace.

A survey of some 600 employees arrival from different places has proved that blackberry is really turning them into a hopeless workaholic as they are linked to the world even while they’re at home. The research done by the Employment law firm Peninsula has said that invariably a working week is being extended to around 55 hours for numerous people these days.

According to the Managing director, Peninsula, Peter Bone, ‘It is necessary for staff to spend quality time away from the office, spending time with the family, or undertaking recreational activities quite than tapping away responding to customer emails or deadlines thus that they sustain a healthy work/life balance. Bosses should encourage staff not to work from home unless necessary. Inform staff that they should bound working from home.

If they are satisfied to work away then ensure they agree to opt out of the maximum working week and have this signed. Limit the magnitude to which employees are using their devices when they select to do so; unrested employees will be less productive during the working day.’

He further said that “The recession has forced everyone to become more productive and for those with access to work at home, this is an opportunity for them to catch up or get ahead. With email on tap, employees with smartphones are able to respond a lot quicker and also get themselves prepared for the working day ahead by checking their email first thing.

Employees should be encouraged to take suitable rest breaks whether they do select to carry on working out of hours. Having a well rested worker with a fine work/life balance is a lot more practical than a exhausted worker that place one overly numerous hours in the night before.’ A clever phone may make communication much easier, but it does not come without its after effects.
