Large number of public servants in biggest departments breaking Ottawa's remote work rules, data show
Briefly

Despite the federal government's mandate for employees to work at least three days a week on-site, compliance in key departments is notably low. The Department of National Defence (DND) reported just 60% compliance in January 2023, with only 31% in December. There is a marked difference between DND staff in the National Capital Region and those elsewhere. The spokesperson noted that compliance rates focus mainly on employees with hybrid work arrangements, as many other staff continued working on-site during the pandemic.
"DND's compliance monitoring equips leadership with general information needed for oversight of the work force," Poulin said.
"The federal government's latest remote work mandate requires all staff employed under the Treasury Board to work on-site a minimum of three days a week."
