New Portugal labor law makes it illegal for bosses to text/contact employees outside of working hours, subject to fines.
US could definitely do something to get employers to cut the bullshit of acting like they own their employees personal lives.
Law also says parents have a right to work from home without arranging it beforehand until a child turns eight....that one seems entirely impractical and unreasonable for many industries, would think there’s some stipulations to that. How is for example a restaurant going to be able to have work to do for eight parents working from home, they don’t need eight people to help with the books and scheduling.
