Portugal bans bosses texting staff after-hours
I DM my staff on slack “after hours” [1] all the time, and set the expectation that they should respond when appropriate at their discretion. That could (and often does) mean the next business day or even later. Or it could mean ASAP; they’re adults, and have the judgement to make the correct call.<p>[1] Obviously, this policy is not targeted at staff in different time zones, which makes their remedy meaningless.
