In Italy, youth fights for the right to disconnect

L’asSociata is a group of workers, students, and young people from Rome who launched the campaign “Work then Disconnect” to introduce the right to disconnect in Italy, similar to what has been done in France. The bill would prevent employers from contacting employees outside working hours if passed. ‪@vdnews_ita‬ spoke to some young people in the movement about their cause and the importance of setting the boundaries between private life and work in an era where we are constantly connected.
