With the balance of work life go for a throw because of a pandemic, employees have worked nonstop for almost two years now, throughout the world.
Because operations have spinned, people are limited to their homes throughout the day, to complete their work.
To add to their misery, many have to work for hours.
This causes a lot of discomfort and distress that causes mental and physical health problems at a worry rate.
When countries think of ways to reduce extreme work pressures, Portugal has taken steps to ensure employees do not feel a heavy workload by making it illegal for their managers and bosses to contact their employees after working hours.
This step is fresh retrieval considering health and mental stability of employees.
A boss will be responsible if they contact their employees after working hours and they are also responsible for paying gas and electricity levels due to extensive jobs from the home environment.
Minister of Labor Portugal and Social Security Ana Mendes Godinho said, “Pandemic has accelerated the need to regulate what needs to be regulated.” He also claims that this can be an effective step in making Portugal one of the best places to work.
It can also be a good way to attract ‘digital replacement’ to Portugal.
‘Digital wanderers’ are people who can work online from anywhere in the world, given the right conditions.
Many companies and businesses encourage their employees to do more work without considering their health and safety problems.
Many studies and studies have observed that most people have experienced at least one main case of mental illness or other significant health problems.
In the past year, the number of mental illness and heart attacks has increased radically due to crazy working hours.
In addition to health risks, the relationship is getting worse because the priority has shifted the base since the long distance work came into effect.
The lack of limitations between personal and professional life has caused significant fighting at home due to negligence and ignorance.
In an effort to maintain the level of productivity, the company forgets the key aspects to manage the entire organization – employees.
Unless the employee is in very good condition with sharp and healthy thoughts, ineffective work will continue to permeate through cracks and gaping holes, making their way for the destroyed employee structure.
