From August 26, employees of non-small businesses (companies employing 15 or more people) can refuse to respond to 'unreasonable' after-hours calls from their employer.
And the 31-year-old took to her social media to tell employers it was the ideal time for them to 'get their s*** together'. The influencer, who owns the Fayt clothing label, used an Instagram video to tell her followers that the new law was simply 'common sense'. 'Australians now have a legal right to switch off after work hours,' she said on Monday.
'As a business owner with more than 60 employees [I wonder] why is this not a common sense practice within businesses? 'I think this is a great thing - but don't bosses and businesses already have this as a common sense thing? 'As a business owner myself I can say this is a step in the absolute right direction,' Saunders added.
