- Sky News host Sharri Markson slams Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's right to disconnect laws, which come into effect today, and states employees do not need to answer work correspondents outside work hours.
"The Prime Minister today celebrated new right to disconnect laws which ban bosses from contacting staff after hours," Ms Markson said.
"Anthony Albanese claimed these laws would give people more time with their family when, in fact, they mark a dark return to a bygone era of nine-to-five office hours.
"The Coalition and business council say these new laws are unnecessary and are a major productivity drain at a time when slow productivity growth is a factor in inflation remaining high.
"It's absurd government regulation in the business sector.
"The prime minister's rules are a return to a bygone era.
"They are a handbrake on the flexible working arrangements that all major companies globally are moving toward."
Albo is a mental health issue for me.
Albo is on call 24 hrs a day? He has never worked in his life while sponging off hard-working Aussies!
Albo couldn't organise a root in a woodyard 🤭

Albo needs to disconnect
All i want from the government is for them to stay OUT OF MY LIFE!!!
What the hell does Albanese think he knows about what is best for Australians? We’ve never had a more disconnected PM or government.
elbow has no idea. We the people do not need micro managing. We can sort it without his imput and his dumb union laws.
A bloody dangerous person he is . What a croc he is
Albo has a huge disconnect from Australia's and more of a connection with Palestine.
Most people are intelligent enough to know that their work is vital to their life. Flexibility is very helpful
Does this law include all of the politicians staffers who are expected to be on call 24/7 ?
Australians have to work longer hrs to pay their power bills.
Blame that on Morrison and Taylor
He has given me mental health issues
Excellent video Sharri…
I'm only connected to the net 24/7 to see what bright idea Albanese comes up with next. Maybe another pay rise? Definitely not easy under Albanese
What a load of rubbish imo.
I'm sure most people will work it out without issue and if increasing productivity is only due to people's efforts in their unpaid time we really haven't progressed much have we?
If the laws are unnecessary why are they an issue?
Step 1 decry a problem that does not exist
Step 2 propose a solution that misses the mark on that non existent problem
Step 3 Deny evidence showing failure of step 2 and double down with more “solutions”
With the unions claiming a victory I’m really struggling to see what unionised industry / job requires email out of hours? But wait, if this clown is voted back in, he will push this crap further
Bosses have been ringing up their employees and then sacking them when they don’t comply. That’s the problem - astonishing that you appear to be ignorant of it. If business acted with decency, which it doesn’t, perhaps these law’s wouldn’t be necessary.
Doggie you certainly have baggage ⚓️r 🤪🤪
Obviously the mental health issue has effected Albo because of his 24 hour at call.
Albo "on call 24 hours a day". And its still doesn't help.
1.5 hour massage in parliament gym then an afternoon tea for a charity. Drinks in parliament bar after.
But I was travelling in the car 🚗,,,, this man is so out of touch!
More rubbish from the Albanese government. Over my whole career I was happy for my employer to contact me outside working hours, for me it also worked both ways.
Albo DESERVES TO BE DISCONNECTED!!!
No no he needs to be cancelled!
They will force employees to be in office 5 days now
You need to get paid for being on call. Many people still are.
There are so many things pissing me off about Labor. One thing that is clear, to me, is that they want us divided, broke, and abstracted from the real issues.
This clown has no bloody clue, he just keeps destroying businesses, where does he think the money he keeps wasting comes from
Thats your opinion. What about disability support workers. Workers can be contacted if they want. The ones who don't want to be contacted weren't going to do extra work anyway. A worker is allowed to answer their ph if they want.
Or not answer it if they don't want.
This IR reform is a distraction. More important things to sort out first. Corporates and Government don't want the real problems to be headline news. Inflation! Inflation impacts to Regional and Cities would best be served by addressing the core root cause of inflation and the regional and city cost of living crisis. This would be a great opportunity to bring front and centre and explain to all Australians, and yes the Regional folk, as to why we don't have a sovereign fund similar to the US for example in Alaska where the people who own the resources, get paid a dividend annually and or it goes into a sovereign regional and national development fund? Need to vote these politician people out that deliberately avoid or stall or delay any reform or transparency on this. Terrible damage being done with our Australian tax payers subsidizing corporates and getting basically a tiny trickle in return if that. Need Coalition both state and federal to first fix the cost of living crisis that deniers like the Labor and Teals parties will not address. Caused by Corporate Profitering driving up our inflation. Start with the energy lobby groups and energy companies and many others taking our gas and other resources alledgegly for free and allegedly not paying royalties or taxes. We the Australian people own these resources. Why do we get tiny trickle feed profits of alledgedly small smoke and mirrors payments to look like we are getting something from some companies? Compared to Qatar for example, we export more natural gas but our royalties and taxes are way way smaller? Why?
Cost of living, the cost of housing, traffic congestion, higher interest rates are more of a mental health issue than a few emails or phone calls.
The sheer pressure of surviving while this government continues to run immigration at record levels driving demand and congestion is the problem.
Vote Labor out.
8:35 - What I would really like to see is heads of government departments going to Senate Estimates and being asking important questions, and being told by the department heads that we couldn't get answers to the questions on time because the people we needed clarification from had finished work for the day and we couldn't ring them to ask because it was after 4.00 pm when they finish work for the day.
Let's hope he isn't on call 24/7 for much longer. His employer, the voters of Australia, need to eat and be able to afford basic necessities.
Great job done, Sharri.
PM Anthony Albanese is Union's mate so obviously mates rates,definitely.
Empowering Unions more is disconnect with common sense approach thinking. Definitely.
We have to listen more the richest people in Australia simply thay are the business smartest, definitel.
I used to have same prejudice about the richest , and still have, but what I have seen how smart Dr Gina is, not just for herself, for Australia as well, definitely. Life these days is extremely busy and complex that why flexibility is paramount at working place,definitely
PM Anthony Albanese your job is to disconnect all Australians from poverty, please 🙏. ❤️👗💯👌🇦🇺🇺🇸🌎🙏 10:15
Albonesie you are the mental issue 😡
So that means my boss can’t call me to do an extra shift day so I could have an extra days pay to go towards my never ending bills thanks to the labour government. Or what about letting me know that I am not needed to come to work until 10am (being a casual), so get up early and get the bus/train to go to work for 8 am start and then wait around for two hours when I could have spent that time at home with my kids and take them to school myself which is safer. The labour governments ideas are causing mental health issues.
Sharri I told you not to call Albo after fatcat goes to bed , he and toto cuddled up in bed , you made him upset 😂 , can you tell indian scam callers , calling me after hrs to please
It will get workers sacked
Sharri working for the bosses, to get workers doing longer hours for no extra pay. Australians already do some of the longest work hours in the world.
I many many yes ago use to run a TAB yes I was an agent. Staff would let you down and you would have to ring staff to see if they wanted to work. Seeing it was casual work this is absolutely garbage. It would simply be if you didn't want to work you could say no. But someone who was not prepared to accept a phone call for me in an emergency wouldn't work for me. My people were excellent and I was available to them in an emergency. I would advance money etc. Not always getting paid back but but remember it is quid pro quo. you help me I help you
In this instance I agree with Albo, even a broken clock is right twice per day. If you are on call however it is different, and you should be paid extra.
It's easy for albo, he is the boss, if anyone in the media ask him anything, he just doesn't give a concrete answer, so he is a profesional at Disconect😂😂😂
Is albo a medical professional that he can say it’s a mental health issue NO HE IS NOT.
Most employers don't do the right thing.
Al-pinocchio's nose is definitely getting bigger😂😂😂😂😂😂
Albo and common sense should not be used in the same sentence.
Can't wait to exercise the Right to Disconnect Labor from the levers of power... for at least the next 20 years.
Hes absolutely hated by everybody
Absolutely WRONG. YOU HATE YOURSELF
I don’t have any idea what this bloke is talking about I have worked for 50 years and I think I have had possibly one or maybe two phone calls f 3:57 rom my employer after hours and it didn’t bother me.
He is only protecting his own backyard.
Working from home does not mean being on call 24/7, answering your boss at any time of day or night. Sky News hasn't got a clue on what's fair! The only message I answer from my manager is whether I'm working or not.
i feel like your really stretching the truth to find a negative on this one.
Australians have always had the right to not answer the phone. Albasleezy is a total joke..
Working from home has been around for a long time in different industries.
Theres no such thing as free anything when it come to government, its the tax payers that will foot the bill for "free child care".
Albo has never had a real job, so how the hell would he know.
So if a casual turns up for work to find out he wasn't needed????????????
Common sense has left the building.
.what bs is this..most people are disconnected even when they are at work😅😅😅😅😅
Albo..... everyone has had a right to disconnect since time.
It's called "don't answer your phone".... More stewpid tape.
Do Employers have the right for workers to "disconnect" from social media and family convos during work hours... 🤔
To be fair, people shouldn’t be being called on their own time, on their day off, unless you are the on-call Ambulance. It’s being misinterpreted. They are not talking about people in their work time or working from home. People being called into work at short notice on their day off because others didn’t show up is unacceptable.
America is Trump ❤❤❤❤❤❤
They are not talking about America
Of course the media and business owners are struggling with the concept of “leave me the fuck alone unless you are willing to pay me for the work I do”
I wonder what Shari markson thinks about jews who have had the right to disconnect from Friday night to Saturday night.
More totalitaian control
More money for lawyers as employers will have to set up a legal agreement if required to contact any employees.
Albosleezy needs to go Peter Dutton for Prime Minister the only person that may save Australia Albosleezy has never had a job never run a small business has been in politics for 40 years
Dictator Albo has lost the plot !
This arrogant clown terrifies me !
I dont answer my phone after 5.00pm, leave a msg like a normal person, youve had all day to call, dont waste my free time.
Airbus Albo has no idea. His in the air for sure.... what a lost Government.
More lies from own pm
ALbo on call 24/7 I call bullshit, how many times have we seen Albanese absent at the wheel.
No contact after hours, does that mean tools down on the dot and clock off?
Stupidity ❤️👗💯👌🇦🇺🇺🇸🌎🙏 0:52
Tank you for senten me money peta. So many adds to send australia money overseas! Thank you albo !
what are you on...
Part of the issues that the legislation also protects the workers who do want to have a break in their work hours or are on a “non working” day caring for their children. This protects the right not to answer continuous calls and emails on those days. Knocking off after work also means being able to cook dinner or bath the kids without being worried you’ll miss something that could get you sacked.
We aren’t talking about the odd call. We’re talking about being expected or pressured to functionally work at those times. Given awards have needed to put in clauses related to not being able to be disciplined or performance managed for not responding outside of agreed working hours (unless formally on call) or on annual leave days etc there has evidently been issues.
I can confirm that my 8-9 Hr day was functionally extended due to site teams starting at 6am but the boss still calling at 6pm asking for administrative things that really could wait until the next day but he called then just because it was convenient for him. I had site responsibilities so would answer incase there had been something requiring call out not to essentially log back on to answer a question that he wouldn’t even action until late the following day…. And I wasn’t alone with this in my workplace.
Email signatures noting that emails are sent out of hours for the senders convenience and don’t required response have helped but don’t protect from management who call or email repeatedly. Just the existence of the oing of notifications can pull you back to work mode subconsciously. Turning them off can currently have you in strife for non action.
I had a friend who was not in an on call role and got pulled into a please explain meeting after she had gone out for a half hour lunch and not immediately responded to an email. She didn’t even have a work phone ( nor expectations that she use a byod set up) - she was in comms role who just created information for marketing campaigns.
We have proven that a large portion of employers (and some employees) haven’t been able to manage the change in technology providing near constant access for work and personal time responsibly and this acts to address the issues.
I don’t think it prevents you negotiating flexible hours to manage other life commitments… it just stops you imposing your choice of extended hours on others, and also protects the times you’ve agreed to be clocked off inside to whatever level of contact/availability that was agreed.
Albo he is the one that giving mental health,
Labor dose not put food on the table for my family ,
I need job and $ and my boss need me, so we have to work together no matter time,
The way Albo the Liar dose finish ends Australia, that is his plan
If you need staff to be available after hours, put it into contract and compensate, with stating what is expected, so worker can sign on the dotted line. If you don’t then don’t expect that a worker will reply after working hours. In case of dire emergencies it is understood you would expect hands on deck. Simples. Stop crying about productivity.
Exactly, mothers need braek from motherhood , daily, definitely ❤️👗💯👌🇦🇺🇺🇸🌎🙏 3:38
Dopey ........... what a wonderful person ........... What a bloody waste of space !!!
Wish albo would disconnect
Thank god for those laws. You never worked for Apple did you.24 hour work is not acceptable. Shari you’re wrong.and please stop being so shouty it’s irritating.
I can't stand to hear another word from Albos gob
All good. AI never disconnects.
Why does SKY love to use the word 'SLAMS' in 50% of their youtube videos.
A new show tilte might be appropriate: 'Slammin' with Sharri'?
at least she didn't call it 'unprecedented' 😅
@@ThatGuy-ze5kk True and it's not as bad as pop culture videos where you get those worst ever, best ever, top ten lists. Have a top day.
What happened to you ?????
As an employer, any staff member that refuses to answer or return a message will either be sacked or have their hours drastically reduced. Only people who have never owned a business or done a fair days work come up with policies like this.
You are not fit to be an Australian employer.
Definitely ❤️👗💯👌🇦🇺🇺🇸🌎🙏 5:20
Yeah, I reckon your boss is gonna find little sympathy on this issue Markson; most people are paid for a fixed amount of hours per week and their boss is not a personal friend. So if you want your staff to do extra hours at home then you pay for those extra hours: time is money
What world are you living in?
@@stuartgraham8946the real one.
How to be productive when kids in school are not even taught enough science, maths
Sharri is completely off topic. She seems to be confusing worker flexibility with the right to disconnect. Why?
It actually improves flexibility not hinders it. It improves family time which is something conservatives love pushing most of the time. It will grow the economy as people can have more time to go and socialise if they so wish to. Pubs, restaurants, sports, cinemas etc would love that extra business.
Also it applies reasonable contact. If a roster at work changes, that is deemed reasonable.
We are getting back our Australian life and culture with such a law.
