Gone2Lunch is a UK campaign to make sure you get your proper entitlement of a stress-free, private lunch hour at work.

It is a fact that the British work harder and longer than any other nation in the European Union. Not only that, our culture has resulted in the creation of a working environment where lunch is deemed only for "wimps", and a well-earned breather dismissed as little more than "slacking off".

Aggressive management and the boom in out-of-town business parks confine more and more people to their desks. Little wonder that the last refuge of relaxation is a quick Web surf or email session during a snatched 5 minutes here or there.

Now even this is under threat as "Big Brother"-style employers remove these rights of Internet/email access, subjecting employees to constant surveillance and invasions of privacy.

Enough is enough…
