Reasons Revisited

199. STRAIGHT TO VOICEMAIL: the right to disconnect from work


Listen Later

Hello! How can we properly switch off from work in an era of phones, email and remote working? We’re exploring the ‘right to disconnect’ — the idea that people should have a right to disengage from messages and calls outside of their working hours. Professor Anna Cox explains the importance of work-life boundaries. Andrew Pakes from the Prospect Union tells us what a right to disconnect could look like. And Caroline Sauvajol-Rialland talks us through what we can learn from France.


Plus writer and youth worker Ciaran Thapar on his new book, ‘Cut Short: Youth Violence, Loss and Hope in the City’.
