The Governor of Yogyakarta Special Region, Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono\nX, has emphasised that the work-from-home (WFH) policy for civil\nservants (ASN) requires awareness as public servants. He stressed that\nthe quality of services to the public must remain the priority even when\nworking from home.<\/p>\n
According to the Sultan, the implementation of WFH is not solely\ndetermined by technical rules, but by the awareness and responsibility\nof each ASN. With such awareness, public services can still operate\noptimally without the need for strict supervision.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is important is that if there is awareness, there is no need\nfor regulation; it can work. But if there is no awareness, then whatever\nthe rule is, it will take space,\u201d said the Sultan when met at the Sleman\nRegency Government Office on Monday (6\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n
The Sultan acknowledged that supervising ASN is a challenge in\nimplementing WFH due to the large number of employees. However, he hopes\nthat individual awareness can be the key to ensuring the policy is not\nabused.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, monitoring is the most difficult part because there are too\nmany people; how can we supervise them all? But we hope that awareness\nremains intact,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, the Sultan mentioned that the Yogyakarta Special Region\nGovernment is still finalising the technical scheme for WFH\nimplementation. It is planned to be applied every Friday, although it is\ncurrently in the formulation stage.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have just finished it. Later, how the administrative system\n(technically) will be, we are just formulating it, but (WFH every)\nFriday,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Previously, the Regional Secretary (Sekda) of Yogyakarta Special\nRegion, Ni Made Dwipanti Indrayanti, stated that they would soon\nregulate the implementation of the directive. She said that public\nservices must still run well. For that reason, regulating the quantity\nwill be the focus of the WFH arrangement.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf everyone from echelon one, echelon two goes to the office, then\nwhat? It would be confusing too. So, it needs to be divided by\npercentage, perhaps in turns,\u201d said Made when met at the Kepatihan\nComplex on Wednesday (1\/4).<\/p>\n
Made gave an example that ASN at the Population and Civil\nRegistration Service must still have some coming to the office to\nprovide services. Even though there is the Electronic-Based Government\nSystem (SPBE), she believes not all people can use SPBE.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will see later, so we cannot just set 25-50 percent like that.\nYes. Perhaps for some Regional Apparatus Work Units (OPD), the majority\ncannot be delegated with IT, applications, systems. Yes, it might be a\nbit difficult if we say 50 percent. So, we are still identifying,\u201d she\nexplained.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/on-wfh-oversight-sultan-hb-x-highlights-civil-servants-awareness-1775623939", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
