The Associated Press (AP) reported that on Friday (Nov. 5), Portugal's parliament approved new labour laws pertaining to working from home. These laws give more protection to employees who work outside of their company premises.

Under the new regulations, companies can be fined for disturbing the privacy of staff or their families.

This includes contacting workers outside of their regular working hours by phone, message, or email, according to CNN.

The new law states that "the employer must respect the privacy of the worker" including rest and family time, and violating that is a "serious" offence.

The BBC reported that the law also allows staff with children to work from home indefinitely, without the need to seek prior approval from their employers, until their child turns eight.

When your boss abuse your personal handphone and call u at 1am, it is a must to pick up the phone.

Even if the instructions from your boss is not urgent, meaning she tells you to reply to an email now, NOW.

A perfomance D rating will be given if you are not obedient to do according as told.

Used to be like that for me in my first job. Such as need to go meet up with clients at midnight due to video conferencing with American clients. But strangely, I never had an issue with it back then.
