JAKARTA - The government has started implementing the policy of working from home or work from home (WFH) one day a week every Friday starting today.
The policy was taken to anticipate the oil fuel (BBM) crisis due to the conflict in the Middle East.
Even so, the rule was not carried out by state civil servants (PNS and PPPK) at the Ministry of Public Works (PU).
"We decided we are not WFH," said Minister PU Dody Hanggodo at a press conference at his office, Friday, April 10.
Dody explained that the decision was made because the PU Ministry worked in the infrastructure sector, where they were not only tasked with building, but also involved when there were disasters.
"Because, right, (the Ministry) PU is in addition to building infrastructure, it is also part of the main team when there is a plan together with BNPB," he said.
Even so, Dody emphasized that his party was still making energy saving efforts. One of them is by reducing the use of electricity in the ministry's office, especially after 17.00 WIB every day.
"We are trying to work more efficiently, after five o'clock, for example, we reduce electricity once. So after five o'clock, we reduce electricity completely, we reduce AC," he said.
"Hopefully, in this way, even if it is not WF, but there is still efficiency that we can provide to the nation state," he continued.
Based on VOI's monitoring at the Ministry of PU office, Friday afternoon, April 10, it was observed that ASN activities were still very crowded.
Moreover, shortly after the Friday prayer was completed at the mosque which is still in the area of the ministry's office.
In addition, the situation of the canteen, both the main canteen and the canteen of the Directorate General of SDA, was right on the meeting between journalists and Dody, it was observed that many ASN were having lunch.
In addition, the condition of the PU Ministry's car parking lot was also observed to be still filled with ASN's official vehicles.
