        "summary": "Work From Home (WFH) policy, introduced in April 2026, has reduced Pertalite consumption by nearly 9% in April, according to Economic Coordination Minister Airlangga Hartarto. The government has decided to extend the policy, which applies to civil servants, state-owned enterprises, and private sector workers, while exempting essential services and strategic industries. The move is part of broader efforts to enhance energy efficiency and adapt to global oil price fluctuations.",
        "content": "<p>Minister of Economic Coordination Airlangga Hartarto announced the\nevaluation results of the Work From Home (WFH) policy, implemented in\nearly April 2026, which is claimed to effectively reduce petroleum-based\nfuel consumption, particularly Pertalite.<\/p>\n<p>The statement was made by Airlangga following a coordination meeting\nat his office on Tuesday, 26 May 2026. \u201cWe evaluated the Work From Home\npolicy over two months and the results were quite positive, with\nPertalite usage in April decreasing by nearly 9 per cent,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Given its effectiveness, the government has decided to extend the WFH\npolicy through a ministerial coordination meeting. Airlangga stated that\nthe rules for civil servants (ASN) will be issued by the Minister of\nAdministrative and Bureaucratic Reform, Rini Widyantini, via a new\ncircular. For local officials, the Interior Minister Tito Karnavian will\nissue the circular. The State-Owned Enterprise Business Management\nAgency (BP BUMN) will regulate WFH for state-owned enterprise employees,\nwhile the Labour Minister will handle regulations for the private\nsector.<\/p>\n<p>The WFH scheme was initially introduced as an adaptation measure to\nglobal dynamics, particularly following the surge in global oil prices\ndue to the Middle East conflict. The government has established a\nnational work culture transformation policy to promote more efficient,\nproductive, and digital-based work behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>Under this policy, civil servants will work from home one day a week,\nspecifically every Friday. According to the Ministry of Economic\nCoordination\u2019s website, the WFH scheme also regulates digital government\nmanagement transformation and mobility efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>The measures include restrictions on official vehicle use except for\noperations and electric vehicles, promotion of public transport, and\nefficiency in domestic business trips by up to 50 per cent and\ninternational trips by up to 70 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>For the private sector, WFH arrangements will consider the\ncharacteristics and needs of each industry sector. The Labour Ministry\u2019s\ncircular also includes a movement to improve energy efficiency in\nworkplaces.<\/p>\n<p>However, certain sectors are exempt from the WFH policy and must\ncontinue working from offices or the field, including public services\nsuch as healthcare, security, and sanitation, as well as strategic\nsectors like industry\/production, energy, water, basic necessities, food\nand beverages, trade, transportation, logistics, and finance.<\/p>\n<p>In the education sector, primary and secondary schools will continue\nface-to-face learning five days a week. There are no restrictions on\nsports events, achievements, or extracurricular activities. For higher\neducation, students from semester four onwards will follow the Minister\nof Education, Science, and Technology\u2019s circular.<\/p>",
