Want Your Boss To Stop Bugging You After Work Hours? Move Here!

The places around the world that keep passing progressive legislation allowing employees to disconnect from work keep piling on.  

Technology has made flexible work arrangements possible but at the same time, most employers do not recognize this flexibility as real work.  

Ontario, Canada, joins Spain, France, Portugal, and some US states in passing a law that will make it against the law to contact employees after work hours, with very few exceptions. 

Are you just taking the time to answer a quick call or just reply to an urgent email or Slack message? It is these types of flexible work that the legislations attempt to address. 

Is it possible that legislators can go too far in order to protect workers' rights? 

Critics of this type of legislation think it may deter large employers from expanding into their countries because of the ever-expanding red tape that employers ultimately have to pay for.
