Home Office: Remote Working
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what information they hold on the number of workdays that were completed remotely in their Department in (a) 2024 and (b) 2025 to date.
Answered by Sarah Jones
The Home Office operates in over 250 different workplaces across the UK as well as having a large number of mobile teams working in other locations.
Heads of Department have agreed that 60% minimum office attendance for most staff continues to be the best balance of working for the Civil Service. Office occupancy data for the period July - September has been published, with further publications to happen on a quarterly basis. The data is published here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/civil-service-hq-occupancy-data
