The U.K. is considering joining a host of other European countries in making it more costly for restless employers to contact their employees after the working day ends.
The country’s fresh-faced Labour government is drafting legislation that would outlaw late-night WhatsApps, emails, and Slacks and potentially fine dissenting bosses heftily.
While commonplace across Europe, legislation giving workers a “right to disconnect” has lagged behind in the U.K., but now might become more European if reported changes to work culture are implemented.
Nope. Dont send me messages about work to my phone. I have email and a ticketing system for that. I’ll see to it when I’m at work.
Yeah, why would my boss even have my phone number? There are corpo comm systems for corpo business.
In some companies I’ve worked at, it was even illegal to text each other outside said corpo systems. It made a lot of things clean and easy.
