The 'right to disconnect' law, effective from August in Australia, enables workers to ignore calls and emails outside of work hours, bolstering work-life balance.
Kevin O'Leary criticized the 'right to disconnect,' claiming he would fire anyone not responding to after-hours work, highlighting a clash between business expectations and worker rights.
Surveys reveal that 70% of employees did work after hours in 2022, demonstrating a pressing need for legal protections like the 'right to disconnect.'
The law introduces necessary boundaries in industries lacking them, giving workers a sense of control and autonomy over their work-life balance.
