Definition from
TermCord IATE:
"A regulation from the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs to regulate remote working. EU Parliament calls for:
Employers should not require workers to be available outside their working time and co-workers should refrain from contacting colleagues for work purposes.
EU countries should ensure that workers who invoke their right to disconnect are protected from victimisation and other repercussions and that there are mechanisms in place to deal with complaints or breaches of the right to disconnect.
Remote professional learning and training activities must be counted as work activity and must not take place during overtime or days off without adequate compensation."
Example sentences:
Staying connected round the clock has started taking a toll on workers. Research findings show that after months of homeworking, employees are now showing signs of fatigue, burnout, depression and health disorders. The boundary between work and home life has become blurred, leading to excessive encroachment in people’s private lives. Employees are baffled with a ‘stream of pings’ overtaking their personal space. This has brought to the fore demands related to the right to disconnect. (The Wire)
Finding the right balance won’t be easy, especially as some people prefer to work flexible hours and find it doesn’t impact their work-life balance. “I would say, the law in creating a right to disconnect could help but it won't be effective if people do not have the discipline,” Malanda said. Training will be key to ensuring any future right is protected, as will monitoring. (Delano)
Labour MEP Alex Agius Saliba’s report on the right to disconnect comes at the tapering of the shock pandemic that changed lives in 2020 and sent everyone ‘home’. Now working from home, flexi- and telework makes the always-on culture a fact of life. (Malta Today)

recht op onbereikbaarheid
Definition from
MKB Servicedesk:
Het recht op onbereikbaarheid is het zeker zijn van ongestoorde privétijd. Werknemers hoeven zich niet met werk bezig te houden buiten werktijd. Dus: geen e-mails, telefoontjes, whatsappjes of andere berichten meer van collega's. Het Europees Parlement wil het 'right to disconnect' vastleggen als een fundamenteel recht en werknemers beschermen tegen de gevolgen als ze op dat recht staan.
Example sentences:
35 536 Voorstel van wet van het lid Gijs van Dijk tot wijziging van de Arbeidsomstandighedenwet in verband met het aangaan van een gesprek tussen werkgever en werknemers over bereikbaarheid buiten werktijd (Wet op het recht op onbereikbaarheid) (Kamerstuk Overheid.nl)

De Europese Commissie is gevraagd om het ‘recht op onbereikbaarheid’ ofwel ‘the right to disconnect’ vast te leggen in nieuwe regelgeving. (Van Zinicq Bergmann Advocaten)
