Image: Getty Images/iStockphoto As work laptops and phones increasingly make their way into employees personal living spaces, some clearer boundaries have been established, at least for Irish employees, in the form of a new official right to disconnect from emails and calls outside of normal working hours.  The Irish Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment Leo Varadkar has unveiled a new code of practice to act as future guidance for the workplace, and which gives employees the right to fully switch off from their professional duties at the stroke of 5.30pm – or rather, whenever they have agreed with their employer that the workday should be over.

Four-day strike at UK Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency demanding Covid-safe working conditions

Four-day strike at UK Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency demanding Covid-safe working conditions Workers at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) headquarters in Swansea, South Wales, began a four-day strike Tuesday. This is the first major industrial action taken at a workplace in the UK over coronavirus safety. More than 600 positive Covid cases have been reported at the DVLA’s offices. The 3,300 workers are striking due to DVLA’s refusal to implement basic COVID-19 safety measures. For months now, up to 2,500 staff have had to physically attend their workplace at the DVLA’s offices. This is despite at least 535 members of the workforce (over 25 percent of those in the office) catching coronavirus in the months since the pandemic began to January this year. At least one employee at the site died after test testing positive for COVID-19.
