About Feierabend
Feierabend represents more than simply leaving work - it embodies the German philosophy of clear boundaries between professional and personal life. This cultural concept ensures that after work hours are truly dedicated to family, hobbies, relaxation, and personal fulfillment. Germans protect their Feierabend time fiercely, often turning off work phones and avoiding professional communications to maintain mental health and life balance. This practice contributes to high productivity during work hours and strong family and community bonds.
