Australia is introducing new legislation around the "right to disconnect". This doesn’t prevent employees from putting in additional hours, but it ensures they have the right to disconnect from ‘unreasonable contact’ outside of designated working hours.

I think the new rules are pretty fair, but it turns out it's a bit of a spicy topic in our startup ecosystem. I thought the engineers in this community would appreciate my response to some of these Musk wannabes.
