The Community and Public Sector Union and the Australian Public Service Commission have reached a deal covering 174,000 employees. According to the AFR, “all APS employees will be able to make a flexible work request, including to work from home, and agencies cannot impose limits on the number of days employees can work from home in a week”. There will be a presumption that working from home requests will be approved unless there are reasonable business grounds not to approve.
