Australia Enacts 'Right to Disconnect' Law for Workers Starting Monday
Aug 25, 2024, 09:20 PM
Australia has implemented a new 'right to disconnect' law, allowing employees to ignore unreasonable work-related communications outside of paid working hours without facing any repercussions. This legislation, effective from Monday, aims to improve work-life balance by preventing employers from contacting employees after hours via phone, email, or other digital means. 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.
