Department for Science, Innovation and Technology: Remote Working
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether her Department permits civil servants employed in the UK to work from overseas on a regular basis.
Answered by Ian Murray
My Department’s international remote working policy allows employees to make an application to work remotely overseas for a short, defined period of time and for a number of limited reasons. Approval of such a request is subject to the employee having the legal right to work in the country and the necessary security and other clearances.
