The 'Right to Disconnect' gives employees the legal right to ignore work-related calls and emails outside of contracted hours without penalty. With the rise of smartphones and remote work, the boundary between 'home' and 'office' has evaporated, leading to high rates of burnout. Proponents argue that without legal intervention, workers are coerced into 24/7 availability without extra pay. Opponents argue that rigid laws hurt the very employees who want flexible hours to manage their personal lives during the day.
