Time poverty is the chronic feeling of having too many tasks and insufficient time to complete them. While global wealth has increased, this material prosperity has not created time affluence; instead, rising wealth often makes people feel more rushed. This phenomenon is a critical threat to human welfare, as it significantly reduces life satisfaction, damages physical health, and stifles workplace productivity, making it as important to address as material poverty. Businesses and organizations can help alleviate time poverty by reducing forced idle time—and changing an ideal worker mindset that calls for long hours.
