"California Proposes 'Right to Disconnect' Law for Workers' After-Hours Peace"

California State Assemblyman Matt Haney has introduced AB 2751, a "right to disconnect" bill that would require employers to outline employees' work hours and prohibit them from being required to respond to work-related communications while off the clock. The bill, if passed, would be monitored by the Department of Labor and could fine companies for violations. This legislation has the potential to significantly impact workers in California and potentially influence other states to follow suit, following similar policies implemented in other countries like France.
