Chief Minister Andrew Barr has called for the federal public service to show compassion and understanding when allowing people to work from home, to help get workers through the Omicron COVID-19 wave.
"What will help in pandemic management is a consistent and understanding approach from APS senior management to understand the circumstances that their staff and the broader workforces will find themselves in, in potentially having to manage sickness at a household level or in a particular school or in a particular workplace," Mr Barr said.
"Now is the time for some compassion and understanding around workplace management."
