Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Budget 2021 Support Measures for Enterprise: Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment

Ms Pauline Mulligan:

The Department has carried out a consultation on a framework for remote working and is in the process of developing a national policy strategy for remote working. I guess that the right to disconnect is something that will be considered as part of it. I think that is a commitment in the programme for Government, but we do not have a position on it at the moment.
