That’s because companies routinely inflate workers’ titles to avoid paying them in full for overtime work, according to researchers from the University of Texas and Harvard Business School. Impersonal Email Layoffs Spotlight Dark Side Of Remote WorkDr. Gleb Tsipursky | Forbes Imagine you wake up in the morning, roll over in bed, and grab your smartphone. You’re checking your texts and email like you do every morning before starting your workday at your home office.

Taking a secret 'hush trip' could help with burnout — but might land your company a surprise tax billHannah Towey | Business Insider Hush trips are the most recent addition to the growing lexicon at the intersection of work and travel, joining longtime favorites “bleisure,” “workation” and “digital nomad.” The space’s recent growth is in part due to WFH trips becoming more accessible as hotels and vacation rentals offer discounts and packages for longer-term stays, Pokora said.
