""As rule tightening, one day a week sounds ridiculous. The [coronavirus] times are far behind us, but public sector remote work practices haven't really tightened up much," her post read."
""It undoubtedly reduces productivity and complicates all kinds of things, even if it can sometimes work for some cases," her post continued."
""And of course, working from home is surely much more comfortable for many people! If you ask the person themselves, they will certainly say they are more efficient at home. Sometimes that may be true, but honestly, can this really be considered true more broadly in public sector jobs?""
""expensive office spaces in the city centre if no one even visits them""
Finance Minister Riikka Purra, who also leads the Finns Party, criticized Kela's remote work policy requiring at least one on-site day per week or four days a month. Purra argued that pandemic-era self-distancing is over and that tighter on-site rules should reflect that change. She said remote work can reduce productivity and complicate tasks, while acknowledging it can suit some roles and be more comfortable for many. Purra emphasized the value of lunch and face-to-face conversations and questioned the need for expensive city-centre office space if it remains unused. Kela has closed several branch offices to cut costs, prompting employee resentment and longer commutes for some staff.
