Australia recently gave employees the right to ignore their boss outside of ordinary work hours.

The law is meant to protect the health and wellbeing of workers and reduce stress and overwork, allowing for better work-life balance in a time when the world is more hyper-connected than ever before.

But what role does corporate culture and employee satisfaction play in financial performance, and will financiers actually consider the new law when making investment decisions?

Today, we are joined by Emma Pringle, Head of ESG and Portfolio Manager at Maple-Brown Abbott, a boutique firm with around $9 billion in assets under management.

Pringle will explain how investors and asset managers respond when workplaces are exposed as dysfunctional or 'toxic' - and what impact this has on business performance.

The host of The Greener Way is Rose Mary Petrass, senior journalist at FS Sustainability.
