Burnout is becoming a major issue globally, with staff shortages, skills gaps, and the ‘always-on’ mindset driving employees to the brink. Bruce Fecheyr-Lippens , Chief People Officer at SD Worx , recently spoke with HR magazine about how HR professionals can address this growing concern. Implementing a ‘right to switch off’ policy could provide a much-needed remedy and help improve work-life balance.
In the article, Bruce discusses how over a dozen countries have already embraced this initiative, and what HR leaders in the UK can do to follow suit. As businesses struggle to retain talent and manage stress, this conversation is more relevant than ever.

As of October 1st, workers across the UK can keep 100% of their tips, thanks to the Employment (Allocation of Tips) Act. This new law ensures that all gratuities, service charges, and tips go directly to employees without deductions.
Important to note: From now on, if an employer breaks the law and retains tips, workers can bring a claim to an employment tribunal and hold them accountable. Expected to return ￡200 million to workers' pockets, this is just the beginning of the government’s proposed plan to 'Make Work Pay'.
