Featured on SBS News: Right to Disconnect Law Extends to Small Businesses

Salbridge Lawyers Principal Solicitor Nour Salama was featured on SBS News to provide expert commentary on Australia's Right to Disconnect laws, which extended to small businesses in August 2025. The feature highlighted the significant workplace changes affecting employers and employees across the country.

The Right to Disconnect law gives all Australian workers the legal right to ignore calls, texts, and emails from their employer outside of working hours, within reason. While the legislation initially applied to medium and large organisations, its expansion to small businesses marked a crucial shift in workplace rights and employer obligations. Nour provided insights into what this means for small business owners navigating these new compliance requirements.

As employment law continues to evolve in Australia, understanding these workplace changes is essential for both employers and employees. This feature demonstrates Salbridge Lawyers' commitment to helping businesses stay informed and compliant with the latest employment legislation.
