Good morning on this drippy Friday.

Now that almost everyone is easily reachable at all hours, it’s normal to tap out emails long after dinner or read Slack messages while brushing your teeth. Try as you may, once that phone buzzes, it’s nearly impossible to shake the pressure to respond.

But if a bill introduced this week in the City Council passes, New Yorkers could freely pull the plug on off-the-clock communications.

Under the proposed “right-to-disconnect” bill, private companies with more than 10 employees would be banned from requiring their workers to respond to electronic work communications (email, text and others) after work hours.

Businesses would be fined at least $250 for each instance of noncompliance.

“So many of us are glued to our smartphones and our computers, it’s important to understand that we don’t have to feel as if our work has to spill into our personal lives,” said Councilman Rafael Espinal, the sponsor of the bill.
