Do the self-employed disconnect from work?

Reports in the news suggest that the Government is preparing to legislate for a 'right to disconnect', preventing employers from contacting their staff outside working hours. But there’s growing interest in how these issues affect freelancers too.

One of the benefits of being a freelancer is having more control over when and how you work. But are you guilty of answering emails late at night, or bringing work devices with you on holiday as a freelancer?

That's why we're asking you - has freelancing helped you to set clearer boundaries with clients, or are you working more than ever?
