Work From Home A Policy

The government has not decided whether or not to make the work-from-home programme a policy, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said on Monday.

The prime minister said he had first to see whether the pilot project involving the Works Ministry yielded better performance from the staff than working in the office and the benefits to them in terms of saving commuting costs and fostering family well-being.

“This is a pilot project and we have not made any decision whether or not to make it a policy, but we have to try out first,” he told reporters when asked whether the government proposed to extend the programme to other ministries.

Earlier, he chaired the sixth Malaysian Aerospace Council meeting here.

Works Minister Datuk Shaziman Mansor announced last month that the three-month trial programme would involve 35 draughtsman and selected individuals working from home.
