Ireland publishes code of practice on right to disconnect
Out-Law News | 07 Apr 2021 | 10:04 am | 2 min. read
Ireland’s Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) has published a code of practice on the right to disconnect, following consultation last year.
The code of practice (16 page / 527KB PDF) sets out guidance for employees and employers about employee disengagement outside normal working hours. It applies to all types of employment, whether an individual is working remotely, in a fixed location, at home or is mobile.
The code introduces three main elements of the right to disconnect: the right of an employee to not routinely perform work outside normal working hours; the right to not be penalised for refusing to attend to work matters outside of normal working hours, and a duty to respect another person’s right to disconnect.
