In this case, she considered that the employee  <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><i>&#8220;had the right, during his leave, to disconnect and a right not to be approached at night by his hierarchical superior<\/i><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">  &#8220;. The legal framework for this right is very recent, and has only recently been codified in other EU member states: in 2017 for France and 2019 for Spain, for example. Since September 2021, the Luxembourg legislator has also expressed the wish to legislate on this subject, since a bill n\u00b0 7890 proposes to insert a right to disconnect into the Labor Code. In addition to regulating working hours and relations between employers and employees, including a general obligation for employers to &#8220;.  <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><br \/>\n  <span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><br \/>\n    <i>to ensure the health and safety<\/i><br \/>\n  <\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><br \/>\n  <span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> &#8220;In accordance with the French Labor Code&#8217;s article L 312-1, companies will be required to set up a specific system enabling employees to exercise their right to disconnect. <\/span><br \/>\n<\/span> <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The bill is fairly faithful to the CES recommendations: each company would be obliged to set up a protection scheme based on its size, the number of employees and their use of digital tools (new article L 312-9). Among other things, the plan will have to define the practical arrangements for disconnection, as well as raising employee awareness on the subject.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Lastly, the draft provides for a penalty for recalcitrant companies that fail to meet this obligation, with an administrative fine ranging from 251 to 25,000 euros, depending on the size of the company and the seriousness of the breach (new article L 312-10).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">While waiting for the vote, employees are still protected by their employer&#8217;s general obligation to ensure their safety, and above all by their right to privacy, as set out in the law of August 11, 1982.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On April 30, 2021, the French Economic and Social Council (CES) adopted a opinion on the right to disconnect.
