Victorians' right to work from home will be protected by law as part of plan from Premier Jacinta Allan
abc.net.au/news/2025-08-02/wor

I hope this proposed change to workers' rights and employment regulations goes ahead. Enshrining the right to work from home would be excellent for work-life balance, such as family time spent together, and reducing the pollution and time-waste of commuting to work. It would also help to prevent some abusive managers from attempting that bait-and-switch where they hire people for remote work and then issue a "return to office" order.

A fear of going to prison for falsifying federal documents didn’t prevent an Arizona woman from using her home as a “laptop farm” for North Korean hackers. @ArsTechnica has more on the scheme that landed the woman a 102-month sentence. Plus, how "remote work" scams have become increasingly common over the last few years.

@Ra @krutonium @jrdepriest So it combines all the disadvantages of #WorkFromHome AND "#ReturnToOffice" with ZERO advantages of either!

Whoever decided #HotDesking should be a thing whilst not allowing 100% #remote should be sent after Musk's Tesla in Space one-way!

  • I could understand it for people who are mostly on the go and rarely need to come in, but not for the average worker who is either #onsite at clients, at the office or at home...

“Researchers who have spent years tracking the share of work US employees do at home say rates were well below 10 per cent before COVID-19 pushed them up above 60 per cent. But they have stayed at around 27 per cent since late 2023, with the latest data out this month showing the same figure.

So much for my theory that 2025 might be the year remote working rates finally started to fall as tighter in-office rules came into effect at companies such as Amazon and PwC in January, the same month Donald Trump began ordering federal workers back to the office full-time.

The data does suggest such orders are increasing and worker resistance to them may be softening.

It shows that 43.5 per cent of people who still work from home reported in June that their employer had issued an RTO mandate in the past six months, up from 39 per cent at the end of last year.”
