Implementation of "Right to disconnect"

Sebastijan Sef
 

Hi everybody!

I'm wondering if anybody of you has an experience in implementation of "Right to disconnect".

Probably the easiest way is to just power down POA or at least GMS server outside working hours, but what about a bit more sophisticated rules, like:

All messages sent to employees outside of working hours should be delivered only next working day in the morning (that goes also for messages sent inside same POA), except if message is tagged as High priority or message has word "URGENT" in subject.

How is this handled for example in France, Italy, Germany and other countries with such legislation? Any GW users from those countries?

Kind regards,

Sebastijan

Kind regards,

    A complex topic of labor law.

    Here to the EU
    www.europarl.europa.eu/.../EPRS_BRI(2020)642847_EN.pdf
    and
    www.europarl.europa.eu/.../EPRS_ATA(2021)659443_EN.pdf

    As far as I understand it, there is no law at EU level yet, it is being discussed in drafts. As far as I know, there is no law on this in Germany yet. In France, a legal template has been in place since 2017. In Germany, such a regulation can be created via a company agreement. So far, I have not seen any specifications for an (IT) technical regulation that explicitly states this. Please do not regard my comments as legal advice under any circumstances. Only experts can make a statement on the legal topic. From experience, because I work a lot with C-Level, I can say that the management in Germany is now in many cases thinking of turning the key around forever because of the bureaucracy, rules and regulations. I'll spare you the conversations and statements from the C-level
