JAKARTA - Chairman of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Prasetyo Edi Marsudi, decided to implement a 50 percent work from home (WFH) policy and some of them will continue to work from the office next week.
Prasetyo said that WFH would be carried out on members of the council to ASN who worked at the Secretariat of the DKI Jakarta DPRD.
"On August 21, tomorrow, I will make a policy within the DPRD for 50 percent of WFH to ASN and members of the council as well," said Prasetyo at the DKI Jakarta DPRD building, Wednesday, August 16.
Therefore, the DPRD will re-adjust the mechanism for work meetings with a hybrid system, some of which are in the office and some follow online from home.
"If I take a policy here (DKI DPRD), this is my power. Indeed, the DKI Provincial Government ASN is also placed here, but the person in charge is me," said the PDIP politician.
Prasetyo said that the policy he took was carried out to reduce the use of private vehicles which were one of the causes of high air pollution in the capital city.
Prasetyo also realized that the Jakarta sky is currently shrouded in smog that indicates air pollution. In fact, one of his family members began to experience respiratory disease.
"Regarding the pollution situation in Jakarta, I saw that in the field earlier after I left the house to the office there was a thick fog. In fact, my grandson also got ISPA. I also don't know, here. My voice is like this and the throat is itching," he said.
Meanwhile, Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono also plans to implement a hybrid working policy to reduce air pollution caused by motorized vehicles to ASN within the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.
Heru said that when his party had prepared a mechanism for implementing ASN for WFH alternately with ASN who were working starting next September.
This was conveyed by Heru after a limited meeting to improve the air quality of Jabodetabek, led by President Joko Widodo.
"Hybrid working is like working from home. This will soon be calculated how much the percentage of each OPD (directed device organization) is. Hopefully this September I can immediately run it," said Heru at the Presidential Palace, Monday, August 14.
For efforts to suppress better air quality, where 40 percent of pollution is contributed from motorized vehicles, Heru hopes that other ministries and institutions based in Jakarta will also participate in hybrid working.
Likewise with the private sector. Heru admitted that the government cannot require private companies to participate in implementing WFH at this time. Therefore, Heru hopes that the private sector will also participate in implementing the policies that will be implemented.
"For the private sector, I cannot determine (regulations), but appeals. Some of them are said to have partially run because of the form of business that cannot, so please return to them," explained Heru.
