Australia has recently implemented a new "right to disconnect" law, a significant development aimed at improving work-life balance for its citizens. This law gives employees the freedom to ignore work-related communications after hours without the fear of repercussions from their employers. The introduction of this law addresses concerns about the blurring lines between professional and personal time. A survey conducted last year revealed that Australians worked an average of 281 hours of unpaid overtime annually, highlighting a widespread issue of overwork. The law does not prohibit employers from reaching out to their employees after work hours.
