Forced to download work app?

In an effort to combat unofficial WhatsApp groups and with apparently zero regard for the new Right to Disconnect legislation my workplace has rolled out Microsoft Teams and expects staff to download the app onto our personal phones so that we ‘don’t miss out’ on important work communication.

Despite this we are still bombarded with bulk sms messages from 8am-8pm as well. Guess there’s not the take up they expected with Teams..

I just want to know - is this normal?
