Is work taking up too much time in our lives? | Burnout Burns Podcast Series Episode 04

This work we go back to the origins of the 40 hr work week and explore the first sightings of overtime work. What is it's impact on our lives?
At BOB we look to dispel the myth and notion of more time spent at work equals to more productivity. A lot of our time is spent on having way too many meetings at the work place.
We look at the busiest countries in the world workwise and discuss the importance of a lull period and how to set some healthy work boundaries towards a more sustainable life. Is work creeping into other aspects of your life? Is it affecting the quality of your relationships?
All this and more in this week's riveting episode of Burn Out Burns!
