5. Join HR Director Paul Dickinson as he
explains why rest is important and challenges
conventional thinking.
Discover why our relationship with work and
rest has shifted over time and why work is no
longer a place that we go to, it is something
that we choose to do and why this is a problem
when we want to switch-off.
Does constantly thinking about work help
us to be happier, healthier and become more
productive?
What are the benefits of switching-off regularly
and what gets in the way of our ability to rest?
What happens when we can’t switch-off?
