In accordance with the Civil Service Blended Working Framework, published on 31st March 2022, my Department has implemented its own Blended Working Policy. Since the 1st July 2022, my Department has facilitated flexible blended working arrangements for all eligible staff members, on a pattern of up to a maximum of 5 days over a fortnight period on a 2 days / 3 days alternating pattern for office attendance as determined by business need, with flexibility expected from staff on other days where there are particular business requirements. Certain roles within my department are ineligible for remote work on the basis of their core duties requiring full-time in person attendance.

The number of staff availing of hybrid remote and fully onsite working from 2022 onward is set out below. In accordance with the Civil Service Framework, no staff in my Department avail of full remote working.

I have referred your query to the agencies under the aegis of my Department and have asked the bodies to respond directly to you on this matter. If you do not hear from them within 10 days please contact my private office.
