Abstract: This article explores how the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly blurred boundaries between work and personal life amid the rise of remote and hybrid work models, leading to dangerously high levels of workplace burnout that impacts both employee wellbeing and organizational performance. Drawing on research demonstrating the importance of psychological detachment from work responsibilities, the authors present evidence-based strategies for effective boundary-setting across different industries, including clear communication of expectations, mindful technology use, encouraging full utilization of time off, and establishing supportive workplace norms. By implementing these practices, leaders can help their teams successfully separate work from personal responsibilities, allowing employees to reclaim essential time for rest and rejuvenation while maintaining productivity, ultimately providing organizations with a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining talent in the evolving workplace landscape.
