It seems great in theory but is absolutely impossible in practice.
If someone in SF sends an email at 4pm to a coworker in NY and it arrives at 7pm local, would that be a violation?
What about our India office emailing me during their normal work hours, but it's 9pm local?
Ok, overseas sites are exempt. What happens when my boss is visiting there (monthly occurrence) and sends me an email during local work hours? He's a US worker sending email out side of "standard business hours".
Automatic system emails? We have tons of reminders that get sent off overnight due to automated maintenance tasks. Do we have to spool those up until morning?
Many of our production sites run 3 shifts. What happens when a plant manager emails me from the start of his shift at midnight?
As soon as you start carving out all sorts of exemptions for these totally standard edge cases (and many more I could come up with if I spent more than 2 minutes on it), the whole law is pointless.
