"Lots of people's bosses are checking their emails during their holidays, and that sets an expectation for employees to do it too, " David D'Souza, membership director of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), told the BBC.

Chris Harding, chief executive of Actual Group, says he discusses this topic with his team a lot, but there is "no definitive right or wrong" answer. "You don't really fully relax not knowing what's going on. However, some may relax more if they are totally detached from the business, " he says.

克里斯哈丁，Actual集团的首席执行官谈到他经常与他的团队谈论这个话题，但并没有“明确的对与错”的回答。他说到“当你不清楚下一步的走向（工作上的）时你不会真正的放松。因此，当你完全脱离你的业务，有些人才会更加的放松。”

definitive：明确的

Mr D'Souza says some departments have started restricting people's access to email while they are on holiday. For instance, Daimler in Germany has introduced a policy that if you try to email a person who is on annual leave, the email will be deleted.

"Organisations benefit from people who return from holidays being fully rested, " Mr D'Souza stresses. "We need to have a better relationship with technology and make sure we aren't addicted or getting too much screen time. And secondly, we know that people's productivity dips if they're not adequately rested within work."

大卫D搜咋说到：“当人们从假期中回来时得到了充分的休息是对组织有益的。我们需要与科技建立更好的关系，来保证我们不会上瘾或是在屏幕上投入太多时间。其次，我们知道，人们如果没有在工作中得到充分的休息，他们的生产力会下降。”

addicted：上瘾的

productivity dips：生产力下降

within：在什么…内

if they're not adequately rested within work：这句话挺奇怪的，为啥是在工作中没有的得到充分的休息呢？不应该是非工作时间吗，工作时间休息不就是摸鱼了哈哈哈，有独到见解的欢迎评论区留言，git talk就是github账号。
