The Irish government announced its remote working strategy in January 2021, and several proposed measures will be issued later in 2021 according to a published timetable. The government plans to make remote working a permanent option for employees after the COVID-19 pandemic ends, and measures will include granting employees the right to request remote working and introduction of a code of practice to give employees the right to disconnect from work outside of working hours. The strategy follows a 2020 public consultation on remote work.
