Tens of thousands of workers in the public sector are being allowed to indefinitely work from home despite calls from the government for them to return for the good of the economy, it is reported.
A hybrid working environment has now appeared to have taken a hold from top Whitehall mandarins to civil servants around the country with as little as 40% of working time in offices.
Despite Covid lockdown restrictions having been removed and nothing to stop workers from heading back to offices it is so far not happening with offices empty for much of the time up and down the country in the public sector.
