Worklife (Previously Business Edition and Business Live) is a news programme that premiered on BBC World News on 1 February 2010 as part of a network-wide refresh.[1] The programme is presented by Tanya Beckett (Monday–Thursday) and Jamie Robertson (Friday). The programme examines the inner workings of business, translating complex financial stories to give viewers a clearer understanding of the rapidly changing global economy, and how it will impact on their lives. It also includes the top global news stories of the day as well as weather updates.

The current presenting line up is Sally Bundock with either David Eades or Karin Giannone in the morning.

In 2015, the programme was relaunched as Business Live with two editions one at 08:30 BST/GMT and 20:00 BST/GMT. Originally there was only one morning edition but was expanded to two in November.
