遏止變相加班 澳洲新法允員工放工後合理失聯
26 Aug 2024

 

澳洲周一起推出新法,確保上班一族可以享有「斷聯權」(Right-to-disconnect),只要情況合理,員工如今可以不必在下班後回覆老闆的工作電郵、電話和短訊,以遏止變相加班。有澳洲民眾表示,這項新法讓員工可以正大光明地跟一再入侵他們私生活的工作電郵、短訊和電話說不。

 

這項新法意味著,大多數情況下,僱主不得懲處下班時段拒絕讀取或回應僱主聯繫的員工,除非是緊急情況和不固定工時的工作,不過員工仍可在合理情況下拒絕回覆。而合理與否將視個案由「平等工作委員會」判定,而委員會進行判定時,必須將員工在辦公室的作用、個人情況以及聯繫的方式和原因納入考量。

 

 

違令企業最高罰近50

 

平等工作委員會作出裁定後,違反命令的員工最高罰1.9萬澳元(約10萬港元),違反命令的企業則最高可處9.4萬澳元(49.4萬港元)罰款。

 

不過,澳洲僱主組織「澳洲工業總會」認為,新規應用方式不明確,對僱主來說都會造成困擾。澳洲工業總會進一步指出,工作將變得更缺乏彈性,進而導致經濟放緩。

 

工作時間外收電話電郵成全球常態

 

澳洲斯威本理工大學(Swinburne University of Technology)副教授霍普金斯(John Hopkins)指出:「在我們擁有數碼科技之前,並沒有公私不分的問題,人們下班就回家,直到翌日回到辦公室之前,都不會有聯繫。但如今,在工作時間以外收發電郵、短訊和電話已成全球常態,甚至在假日也是如此。」

 

智庫澳洲協會去年進行的民調顯示,澳洲人2023年平均無酬加班281小時;澳洲協會估計,上述勞動力的貨幣價值達1300億澳元(6832億港元)。
