Why you work late and how to tra

What time do you get off work? These days, it’s hard to pinpoint the exact hour. Technology keeps us working on our commute home, working from our kids’ activities, working while eating dinner and working to review one last presentation or send off that final email from bed.

According to a study by Simply Hired, 78% of salaried workers bring work home. When they do so, the top five things they sacrifice are their sleep, recreation, time with their partner, household chores and exercise. Every day, workers are giving up the activities most likely to recharge them in favor of working late.

Walking out of the office and disconnecting completely isn’t a possibility for most people. And the flexibility to work remotely later in the day has its own benefits. It allows you the opportunity to be physically present at home even if there are things in the office you still need to monitor or take care of.
