This leisure needs to be put into practicable law. What was considered appropriate leisure fifty years ago is not appropriate by current standards. A foreign holiday was a luxury in 1950, reserved for only the very rich. Nowadays, it is so common amongst the working class, that to be deprived of it amounts to social exclusion.

Electricity, a telephone, access to bathing facilities at one point were considered luxuries too, but are now a basic right.
They aren't though. You have the right to have access to electricity. But if you don't pay your bill you don't get none.

I think we should value rest and leisure much more highly than we do though. 4 day workweek!
