But I also understand that not everyone is in a position to be able to turn this off and I would like the right to disconnect to be codified for them. Did I use codify correctly?

I agree, it should stay in place (as in, not repealed by subsequent government). Employees shouldn't feel pressured to pick up the phone outside of work.

I always thought not answering the phone was always an unwritten rule of employment unless it's in your contact, so that's the way I have always acted.

Codify: "to arrange something, such as laws or rules, into a system", so I believe that's correct.
