Measured against the previous year (71 percent), the availability of employees has in fact decreased slightly. \u201cEspecially on vacation, one should relax and take a break &#8211; that\u2019s why the best possible holiday substitution solutions need to be found,\u201d says Bitkom\u2019s CEO Bernhard Rohleder.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bitkom.org\/Presse\/Presseinformation\/Web-Meeting-am-Strand-Zwei-von-drei-Berufstaetigen-sind-im-Urlaub-erreichbar.html\">According to the survey<\/a>, 57 percent of all workers remain available to their bosses, colleagues or clients by phone. A good quarter (27 percent) read work-related emails. Surprisingly, it is younger workers who are more likely to switch off from work completely. Around four out of ten workers (39 percent) between the ages of 14 and 29 are able to disconnect fully during their summer vacations. For 30 to 49 year-olds the figure is 30 percent, while for over 50s it is slightly higher at 34 percent.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2018\/07\/180628-Erreichbarkeit-Ferien-PG.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2736\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2736\" src=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2018\/07\/180628-Erreichbarkeit-Ferien-PG.png\" alt=\"180628-Erreichbarkeit-Ferien-PG\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As a rule, employees don\u2019t need to reachable outside of working hours and on public holidays (with the exception of top managers). For exceptions Bitkom advises a clear, mutually agreed arrangement in the sense of the employee being on call. Rohleder views situations in which permanent availability is tacitly expected, yet not otherwise compensated for, as particularly problematic.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/services\/email-security\/\">Retarus E-Mail Security<\/a> already offers the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/services\/email-security\/tech-specs\/#quiet-time\">supplementary \u201cQuiet Time\u201d function<\/a> as an add-on to the Essential Protection package.
