Working women in Britain think new technology makes their lives even more hectic, according to a new report.
Research conducted for Good Housekeeping magazine found 30 per cent of working women had regularly been driven to exhaustion by work and home commitments. In London, the figure rises to 47 per cent.
Twenty-nineper cent of working women said they could not live without their mobile phone for more than a day. However, 12 per cent complain the phones meant "my life is no longer my own", while 10 per cent said having a mobile meant their employer regularly called them with out-of-hours work queries.
One in 10 of those surveyed felt their boss put more demand on them by email than they would face-to-face.
