'Hard to figure out' what Right to Disconnect laws mean: Woodside CEO

Woodside Chief Executive Meg O’Neill claims it is “hard to figure out” what the Right to Disconnect laws mean to the business. The Right to Disconnect law which came into effect on August 26, allows employees to refuse contact with their employers outside of working hours. “We’re still trying to figure out what these changes mean,” Ms O’Neill told Sky News Business Reporter Ed Boyd. “In the context of a global business, where our two major offices are in Perth and Houston … it’s very hard to figure out what this means to us. “The flexibility that the employees want needs to come with the flexibility that the employers need.”
