Memo from the head of the public service says ministries are strongly encouraged to expand adoption of flexible work where it makes sense.
The B.C. government is making it easier for its employees to work remotely, a change that’s being applauded by the BCGEU but could affect downtown outlets that rely on workers’ business.
In contrast, in December, the federal government said its employees will be required to work in the office at least two to three days a week as of March 31. Recognizing that not all ministries have offices outside Victoria and Vancouver, “we are working to expand capacity in the regions,” said Salter.
“How much of this has had an impact on us and our industry is hard to quantify with so many other variables and factors facing every sector across the board,” said Gonzalez.
