[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My agency has very quantifiable work, and study after study has shown more productivity with telework.

"Remote Workers actually aren't more Productive'

that was just a covid lie meant to make you feel good about the bad decisions to lock up everyone in their homes

People are not more productive though. Your agency, unlike the groups that conducted the studies referenced in the aforementioned article, has a reason to say that productivity is up. If you consider that at baseline remote (not in office 3 days per week) is less productive and then layer on top of that the fact that many agencies only require employees to be available online for four hours during a standard 9-5 workday and it’s easy to see how abuse, for lack of a better word, could occur. I also don’t see how responding to teams messages during the workday indicates that someone is doing work outside or responding to teams messages. The Teams app can be downloaded onto a phone and used like any other messaging app. [/quote]
