KPK Continues to Examine Witnesses in Corruption Cases Despite ASN Work-from-Home Policy
JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has confirmed that the examination process for witnesses in corruption cases will continue during the implementation of the Work From Home (WFH) policy for Civil Servants (ASN).
“Today, there are still witness examinations,” said KPK Spokesperson Budi Prasetyo in his statement on Friday (10/4/2026).
Budi stated that today, the KPK begins implementing a combined work arrangement for its employees, namely working from home (WFH) and working from the office (WFO).
He explained that this combined work arrangement is an implementation to support the government’s policy on energy efficiency, while ensuring that public services are carried out properly.
“The KPK service units that continue to provide direct services are the Public Information Service (PIP), Library, Public Complaints, and LHKPN,” he said.
Budi added that the certification service for anti-corruption extension workers is conducted online, including gratuity reporting optimised online through the application https://gol.kpk.go.id.
“This also serves as a form of work culture transformation to ensure that the quality of performance and institutional services remains well maintained,” he stated.
Previously, working from home or WFH for one day per week for civil servants (ASN) officially takes effect starting Friday (10/4/2026).
This flexible work policy is newly implemented, considering that Friday (3/4/2026) was a public holiday to commemorate the death of Isa Almasih.
The implementation of WFH for ASN every Friday is one of the government’s policies to save or achieve efficiency, particularly related to energy following the outbreak of conflict in the Middle East.
“WFH for ASN in central and regional agencies is carried out for one working day per week, namely every Friday,” said Coordinating Minister for the Economy Airlangga Hartarto when announcing the policy on Tuesday (31/3/2026).
He explained that the four-day work week policy has also been implemented in several ministries/institutions during the previous Covid-19 pandemic period.
Airlangga also emphasised that public services will continue to run despite the WFH policy every Friday.
“Public services will continue to operate, and productive activities including banking, capital markets, and others will continue to run. Those in the offices are permitted to arrange it with certain applications,” said Airlangga.
