No, it would never make sense. Not the way it is described here:
requiring workers to ignore emails from bosses if they’re received outside of their usual working hours.
Whose usual working hours? The boss's or the employee's? What if they work different shifts? What if they are a global company? I do a lot of interaction with our people in Australia and we all have to make compromises to have meetings- We meet at 7 am our time (10 pm their time) or at 5 pm our time (8 am their time).
The way they worded that first line, it says they can ignore the emails. It doesn't say they can't read them outside of work hours, it says to ignore them completely. I just don't even see that being possible. That would mean that I could ignore the emails I got from my director at 7:30 this morning because I didn't come in until 8:00 am. And it isn't that I can't read them before 8, but I am required to ignore them- always. That makes no sense at all.
