According to a draft royal decree, Belgium will soon see a new article added to its civil service act, guaranteeing public employees the right to disconnect. The decree will considerably extend the scope of the measure: all aspects relating to working time, personal time and care are considered in an integrated manner, and it will apply to all employees, whether or not they work from home.

« The decree provides for the possibility of regular consultation within each organization on all aspects of disconnection »
