Episode 5 - Getting Good Work / Life Balance
About this episode
Pre-Show Notes ep. 5
Maintaining a healthy work / life balance - It’s tempting to stay on at work to please your supervisor, and the extra pay from overtime is always welcome, but how does the extra time at work affect our home life, and overall well being?
The Work Life Balance Report 2024 ranked the UK 34 out of 40 countries for best work life balance with the highest rated being Spain.

The European Working Time Directive (EWTD) controls the amount of time people spend at work (48 hours per week), and the amount of time spent between work (11 hours minimum).
Anyone can opt out of the EWTD and this is often considered necessary for those in blue light and clinical NHS.
