OTTAWA — Public servants are voicing their disapproval for an impending mandate to return to the office.
To date, government departments have been making their own decisions about remote and hybrid work, with several opting for a remote work model. Treasury Board President Mona Fortier, who oversees the administration of the public service, said in November that hybrid work is here to stay. But the president of the Public Service Alliance of Canada says workers are awaiting an announcement this week that will require them to work a certain number of days in person.
Several public servants who have adjusted to working remotely due to COVID-19 said in interviews that it is a contentious issue, in part because the pandemic is still ongoing.This report by The Canadian Press was first published December 12, 2022.This story was produced with the financial assistance of the Meta and Canadian Press News Fellowship.
