Right to Disconnect Bill
A California lawmaker is pushing for legislation to make it illegal for bosses to regularly contact you after hours, unless it's an emergency or to address work schedule issues. The Washington Post reported that more than half of workers respond to work messages outside of their normal hours. If this law is passed, any employer that violates it, could face a fine of at least $100 per offense. Source(s): Law360 , received on April 3, 2024; Washington Post , accessed on April 5, 2024.
