Gotrade News - The Indonesian government plans to announce a work-from-home (WFH) policy for one day a week by the end of March 2026. This initiative aims at energy efficiency amid global uncertainty.
Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Airlangga Hartarto, stated that the policy will be announced soon following discussions between the government and President Prabowo Subianto.
The WFH regulation is expected to reduce fuel consumption by one-fifth. This becomes crucial as the risk of energy supply disruptions increases due to Middle East conflicts.
However, the implementation details and technical mechanisms of this policy have yet to be specified. Further information is anticipated shortly.
This policy is part of a broader energy strategy to effectively address energy supply challenges.
With the global situation uncertain, adaptation through this policy is necessary to secure national energy supplies in the long run.
The government emphasizes the importance of these measures for energy sustainability. Participation from both the public and private sectors will support its implementation.
The announcement is awaited as a sign of government concern, with energy efficiency being a top priority in the national economic agenda.
