Starmer ditches the promised right to switch off
https://thecommunists.org/2025/03/11/news/keir-starmer-labour-ditches-right-to-switch-off-promise/ Confirming what might have been anticipated about how sincere the Labour party was in its pre-election pledges to bring in a ‘New Deal for Workers’. So much for working-time directives. With the ubiquitous spread of mobile communications, more and more workers are finding that their employers expect that the fact that they can be reached anytime anywhere means that they should be ready to respond to work calls and emails at any time of the day or night, including on days off and holidays. Not only individuals but their families are paying the price, all adding to the steep rise in the numbers suffering severe burnout from overwork in Britain. Subscribe! Donate!
