In the process of performing IT support, it is obvious to my team that we have employees in the company that are working at home at least some of the time. I’m concerned for the perception among my team of being unfairly treated by not being allowed to work from home themselves and the risk that we could lose valuable members of the team down the line as a result. Certainly, I am not privy to all the potential reasons why any specific employee might be working from home on any given day.
You mentioned previously that we were returning to the policy as it was prior to March, but I don’t know specifically what that means for scheduling in my department. What is the policy currently and where does my discretion lie as a manager when scheduling my team, including possible work from home days? As it stands now, I’m losing productivity from my team when they take PTO or unpaid time off instead of having the option to work from home in certain situations.
As always, thanks for your time and assistance.
