Comment on California law would give employees the 'right to disconnect' during nonworking hours

Again, ops teams usually work way overtime. California is special because we don’t really have an overlapping working time with Asia or EU. This means we either have to not work a regular 9-5 time zone or the company is going to have to open a bunch of positions to make up for the difference.

Then those workers are entitled to overtime pay and for those overtime hours to be clearly defined and adhered by. That really shouldn’t be so hard to grasp.

    Then no. If it’s not in your contract and you’re not being paid extra for it, they have no right to take your free time.

Care to describe what you’re calling “ops” or do you think your company’s technobabble means something?

  "Ops" means "Operations" and is far from technobabble. Ops could be everything from maintenance and security personnel to IT workers who keep business-critical systems running.

    So technobabble. No real making. It’s just a word to slap on whatever you decide is important.
