New laws come into force in Australia giving workers the right to disconnect'
Briefly

The right to disconnect ensures that workers are not expected to manage work communications outside of paid hours, addressing the issue of unpaid labor.
The new reforms are perceived as a significant step forward for workers, especially during a cost-of-living crisis, providing more personal time and financial relief.
Critics argue the new laws could diminish Australia’s competitiveness, as added regulations may hinder business operations amidst already low productivity levels.
Workers express their frustrations about being overworked and underpaid, reflecting a broader trend where job responsibilities extend beyond contracted hours.
