People who leave their email on all day were much more likely to say that they experienced email pressure, the researchers found. Checking email earlier in the morning or later at night is also associated with higher levels of email pressure, they said.
According to the study, managers experience significantly higher levels of email pressure when compared to non-managers. The research also highlighted some interesting group differences in the role personality plays in the experience of email and how email has the potential to both positively and negatively impact work-life balance.
