Discussions on the implementation of working from home or Work From\nHome (WFH) for government employees starting from April 2026 remain\nuncertain. Although technical regulations from the central government\nhave not yet been issued, Badung Regency Government affirms its\npreparedness.<\/p>\n
The Head of the Personnel and Human Resources Development Agency\n(BKPSDM) of Badung, Wayan Putra Yadnya, stated that his office is still\nin a passive position, awaiting an official letter. On the other hand,\nthis discourse has already emerged in line with the potential fuel\nshortage due to the conflict in the Middle East.<\/p>\n
\u201cUp to this afternoon, there is still no letter regarding the\npattern. Regarding that, we are also waiting (for official guidance)\nfrom the province,\u201d said Putra Yadnya on Wednesday (25\/3\/2026).<\/p>\n
To date, there are no implementation guidelines, including how many\nworking days will be shifted to home. Rumours circulating suggest that\nWFH will apply for one day per week starting next April.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not certain yet. We also don\u2019t know what the exact\ninstructions will be. Once there is, we will update,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
Although the instructions have not yet been issued, Putra Yadnya\nassured that Badung will not be caught off guard if this policy is\nsuddenly enforced. Experience during the COVID-19 pandemic serves as a\nbenchmark for their readiness.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhether it\u2019s one full day or we rotate like before. Well, this\nhasn\u2019t been decided by the leadership yet. Later, we will seek\nguidance,\u201d he clarified.<\/p>\n
This WFH discourse is seen as a strategic step by the central\ngovernment to save energy. The potential BBM crisis due to the war in\nthe Middle East is the main reason behind the plan.<\/p>\n
Previously, the Minister of Home Affairs (Mendagri) Tito Karnavian\nconveyed that several coordinating ministers and technical ministers\nhave agreed on the plan to implement work from home (WFH) for one day\nper week. This policy is prepared as part of measures to efficiency fuel\noil (BBM).<\/p>\n
As reported by detikNews, the decision is still awaiting a report to\nPresident Prabowo Subianto before being officially announced to the\npublic.<\/p>\n
Tito explained that the agreement was reached in an inter-ministerial\nmeeting involving Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal, and\nSecurity Affairs Pratikno, Coordinating Minister for the Economy\nAirlangga Hartarto, Cabinet Secretary Prasetyo Hadi, and Deputy Cabinet\nSecretary Teddy Indra Wijaya. The meeting, which lasted several hours,\ndiscussed various government strategies in anticipating potential global\ncrises due to the conflict in the Middle East.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe meeting yesterday lasted almost 3 or 4 hours. Yes, but we agreed\nto speak with one voice, meaning who will convey it, I don\u2019t know who,\n(the meeting) at the Palace. Whether Mr Coordinating Minister for\nPolitical Affairs, Coordinating Minister for Economy, or perhaps by the\nCabinet Secretary (who will announce). So, we only provide inputs, but I\nam not authorised to convey to the public,\u201d said Tito after the PHTC\nupdate press conference at the Presidential Palace complex in Jakarta,\non Wednesday (25\/3\/2026).<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/discussions-on-wfh-from-april-2026-badung-regency-awaits-central-government-instructions-1774453880", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
