葡立法禁止老板下班聯(lián)系員工

Portugal has banned bosses from text messaging and emailing staff outside of working hours as part of new laws dubbed "right to rest".

葡萄牙近日立法強調(diào)員工"休息權(quán)"，禁止老板在非工作時間給員工發(fā)短信和電子郵件。

 

Companies with more than 10 on staff could face fines if they contact employees outside their contracted hours.

如果老板在合同規(guī)定的工作時間之外聯(lián)系員工，將面臨罰款。但公司員工在10人以下的小微企業(yè)不屬于該法管轄范圍。

A document proposing the new labor laws explained that workers should have the right to at least 11 consecutive hours of “night rest,” during which they should not be interrupted unless for emergencies.

一份提出這項新勞動法的文件解釋說，員工每天應(yīng)享有至少11個小時的"連續(xù)夜間休息時間"。在此期間，工作單位與上級非緊急情況不得與員工進行聯(lián)系。

There are also new rules on allowing staff with children to work remotely. Parents will be allowed to work at home indefinitely without seeking prior approval from their employers until their child turns 8.

此外，新法還規(guī)定，有子女的員工可以無限期居家辦公，且無須事先得到雇主批準，直到孩子8歲。

And companies may also have to contribute to higher household bills from being home-based, such as energy and internet costs.

公司應(yīng)承擔員工因居家辦公所產(chǎn)生的額外費用，如電費和網(wǎng)費等。

Data has shown that people have been working longer hours while at home during the coronavirus pandemic.

數(shù)據(jù)顯示，在新冠疫情期間，人們居家辦公時的工作時間更長。
