    The right to disconnect is legilslation designed to protect employees from work creeping into after hours work. It's popping up all around the world including Ontario, Canada, where I live. The thing about legislation is that it's a guardrail to protect us from the worst abuses. As an employer, you never want your employees to have to invoke legislation. It's not good for trust and relationships or the employer brand. So how can you proactively update your operations to ensure that all employees benefit from the right to disconnect whether or not the legislation exists in your part of the world yet or not? Legislation is designed to disuade and penalize behaviour, not shape it or incentivize it. It's the same with ethics in AI but legislation is slow, differs across geographies and can be challenged in court. It's more about crafting norms and expectations that facilitate trust and trustworthiness.
