JAKARTA - Some ASN within the DKI Jakarta DPRD follow the policy of working from home (WFH), in line with the implementation of WFH 50 percent of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. Acting Secretary of the DKI Jakarta DPRD Augustinus said that ASN designated for WFH are those who usually use private vehicles to work. This, said Augustinus, was done to optimize WFH policies in order to reduce air pollution levels and reduce congestion during the 43rd ASEAN Summit. "Some ASNs that use our vehicles are home to. Actually, those that do not WFH also do not reduce congestion because those who go to the office use public transportation," Augustinus told reporters, Monday, August 21. It is recorded that there are 108 ASN within the Secretariat of the DKI Jakarta DPRD. As many as 50 percent of the WFH employees are required to attend online meetings held every day. This is determined to prevent ASN from carrying out other activities during WFH. "They are at home but don't wander around using a vehicle with their family. That's the same as not reducing pollution. That's why we make a schedule for them to join our zoom meeting from officials in the secretary for every 10 am and 3 pm we meet with WFH ASN," he said. It is known that the DKI Provincial Government implemented a maximum WFH policy of 50 percent from August 21 to October 21, 2023. Then, specifically during the ASEAN Summit, the composition of WFH ASN was increased to 75 percent from September 4 to September 7, 2013. The mechanism for appointing ASN that implements WFH or works in the office (WFO) is determined by each day. Secretary of the DKI Jakarta Regional Personnel Agency (BKD), Etty Agustijani, emphasized that ASN designated for WFH are prohibited from carrying out other activities during working hours. They also cannot wander outside the house and are required to wear uniforms while working. "Never mind going home, going to the market is not allowed. Mothers work using negligee while cooking while cooking while cooking when WFH is also not allowed. So they do work at home. Not to cook, but to work at home," said Etty. During WFH, ASN is required to report attendance or attendance on the pages provided every morning and evening. The mechanism for this attendance report also requires ASN to turn on the cameras and locations on their respective devices to be recorded by the system.

"For example, there are employees who WFH then he wanders around and does not comply with the regulations in the provincial government, he will be BAP and then determined the sanctions by each SKPD (regional work unit) in accordance with the laws and regulations," he explained.
