Could that flexibility be included in the Bill? As I see it there is currently a rigid interpretation of the types of circumstances people find themselves in when they want remote work. Sometimes it is for temporary reasons and other times it is for permanent reasons. Could a provision be inserted into the Bill that would allow for those temporary situations where people need to work remotely for a period of time?
