The parties that make up the coalition government in Belgium have agreed to increase the number of working hours per day to 4 days a week and the right not to check texts and e-mails after working hours.
The “labor reform” agreed upon by the Belgian government today includes innovations on various issues related to the rights of employees.

With the agreement, a final compromise was reached on the previously accepted proposal that allows employees to work 4 days a week by increasing their working hours to 10 hours a day.
The right to “not respond to emails” after hours
Another compromise was the right of employees not to respond to notifications such as e-mails and internet messages sent to them by their workplace after working hours.
The government’s labor reform package also included some adjustments to the goal of increasing employment to 80 percent by 2030.
In this context, innovations such as increasing the rights of employees for online sales applications, the right of employees to additional training, and the right to flexible working hours such as night work for e-commerce employees are also included in the reform package.
