Australia Enacts 'Right to Disconnect' Law for Workers Starting Monday
Aug 25, 2024, 09:20 PM

The law applies to companies with 15 or more employees and was a promise made by the Labour Party government. While the law is expected to provide significant relief to workers, experts question whether it will lead to a radical change in workplace culture.
