Little background – I'm in lower management, but a pretty big supporter of a lot of things in this subreddit. (4 day work week, more PTO, higher pay for workers, etc.) I truly do all I can to make my team at work feel valued, always tell them to take vacations and help them get bonuses so they're compensated well.
I have someone on my team who has:
8 hour work shift. Work at home, very low intense computer job. (no expectation to ever come into office)
1 hour lunch and five, 15 minute paid breaks.
That's a total of 2 hours and 15 minutes of breaks available throughout the day, and honestly if they needed to leave to use the bathroom a few times between those or something, I don't even care.
Not to mention he has 5 weeks he can take off for PTO throughout the year.
This person recently gave me feedback that we don't give them enough breaks throughout the day, and honestly I was pretty shocked by this. This person literally only has to work like, 1 hour at a time before he can take at least a 15 minute break and yet he feels it's not enough for a sit at home, computer job.
At what point do you guys feel is the limit here?
