Or just.. don’t?
We’re about to have an oil crises now is not the time to have people go back to the office.
if anything we should be pushing companies to return to WFH.
Based on their past job performance , they shouldn’t need more than a couple of cubicles
This is dumb. Let them work form home when they can.
nobody wants this.
Federal priorities
The state of the economy must be pretty dire for them to want to force workers back to office 4-5 days a week in order to try to force more spending on transportation and downtown.
We are going to increase the $67 billion deficit to lease, heat and cool additional office space and force employees to spend money and burn more fossil fuels commuting when we are currently doing ok without? This doesn’t make fiscal or environmental sense.
I’d rather my federal tax dollars go towards affordability programs, infrastructure and national defence rather than paying commercial leases…
99% of office jobs don’t have to be done from the office, it’s sad what the working class has to accept because they don’t have enough money to be able to stand up and draw lines. Before anyone says “boo hoo” pull your straps up and go to the office just like anyone else, I’ll say if that was the correct attitude to live by , we’d still be in the feudal system. Not to mention it’s clear af governments don’t give 2 shits about the environment.
Smart that they are starting this project now and not prior to starting this nonsense up….
Maybe learn from the private companies that are fully remote? lol
I read the first half and thought we were going out of space…
This is the same government that told us we were selfish for driving too much and asked us to make massive sacrifices for the environment. Just saying…in case you forgot
On the one hand I appreciate being able to work from home on certain days.
On the other hand if I told my work I never needed to come in and actually be in person to mentor or be mentored by others I’d question whether my job could be replaced by AI.
If you can and want to do your work from home and all the metrics show you are at least as efficient as being in the workplace, I don’t see an issue besides the erosion of socialization and collaboration. But for the average office drone this probably doesn’t matter.
This is obviously being done to induce attrition, help local businesses and give the public less to complain about.
Massive L
But the Liberal government cares so much about the environment 🙄.
These 50+ year old executives need to retire already and stop trying to push away modern work standards and new generational norms. There is absolutely no justification to a full-time in-office work week (made up statements with no actual merit) but there is actual statistical evidence of the value of a hybrid model. But why would we actually make informed decisions?
Carney is supposed to be a fiscal steward, how does this decision make sense for the government? (Hint: it doesn’t)
FYI: GoC real estate costs pre-pandemic were around $13B a year.
Note this figure does include military real property, as well as staff who exist for real property purposes only. Plus upkeep (cleaning, security, renovations).
We are currently approaching $20B a year between capital and non-capital costs once we get to the levels they want.
Let that sink in. $20B a year for “perception” issues and because boomers can’t manage remotely. We could nearly halve our deficit.
Because these morons are leasing and renovating at absurd markups because they’re desperate and because labour is in high demand.
What happened to all of the old real estate?
Stupid bone headed decision making 😡
So they are looking into ways to make the existing workforce more expensive? Cool. Cool. Cool.
Wouldn’t it be easier to just force WFH employees to pay for a parking stall they don’t use and just force them to order food out to stimulate the economy. Maybe also ask employees to just idle their car while they work to burn fuel
2 days in the office are largely sufficient for most desk jobs. I don’t understand why execs are so against flexibility
Government is trying to further reduce headcount without having pay severance by trying to make people despise work so much they’d rather just quit.
Oh no, won’t somebody think about the privileged few!
I, along with the twenty million other Canadians who have to go to work each and every day, really wish this tiny, very privileged cohort would shut up about this. If you can’t handle the very onerous job requirement of attendance at work, I’m sure there are thousands of people who would _gladly_ take your place.
Reading between the lines, that must mean there has been a considerable upward bump in civil service. But, we were all told the federal government is doing a headcount cutbon its office staff. What’s up?
Sorry am I understanding this to be specifically for government officials and employees or holistic?
The federal government spends 2+ billion a year on office space. That could easily be cut in half if they pulled their heads out of their asses.
It won’t be, because they won’t.
Isn’t this just going to cost more money?
