As the world becomes increasingly online, the lines between work life and home life are becoming increasingly blurred.

When you can check your emails on the same device you use to stream TV or talk to friends, avoiding that late night question from your boss is becoming harder to do.

Now many are calling for the ‘Right to Disconnect’ to be enshrined in law to save us from becoming perpetually available 24/7.

Today on The Front Page, Dr Amanda Reilly, Senior Lecturer in Law at Victoria University of Wellington, joins to explain how this law could help you achieve a better work life balance.
