The UK government plans to introduce a new employment rights bill that will enforce workers' right to disconnect from work outside agreed hours, with penalties for non-compliance.
Some workers believe the right to switch off will have little impact on their workloads, as they feel obligated to complete tasks within limited hours.
A housing manager supports the switch-off right, noting that demands from work should not outweigh personal responsibilities, emphasizing the need for a balanced approach.
Overall, there is a sentiment that employees feel pressured to work beyond their contracted hours, highlighting issues of under-resourcing and prioritization in the workplace.
