A Liberal Member of Parliament representing the Carleton riding has called on the government to reconsider its new policy requiring federal public servants to return to the office. Bruce Fanjoy, who defeated Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre in the last election, expressed concerns about the lack of evidence supporting the policy’s effectiveness.
Fanjoy highlighted that the current approach may not address the needs or preferences of federal employees, suggesting a more flexible strategy could be beneficial.
**Why this matters**
The return-to-office policy affects thousands of federal workers and has implications for workplace productivity, employee satisfaction, and public service delivery. As governments navigate post-pandemic work arrangements, the debate over in-person versus remote work remains a key issue influencing federal workforce management.
