Wisconsin lawmakers are going to try and get more answers about the state’s work-from-home policies this week.
The Joint Legislative Audit Committee will hold a hearing tomorrow on two audits, one from the state’s Department of Administration, and the other from the UW on who is being allowed to work from home, and what that means for the office space the state is paying for. An audit from December shows that nearly three-quarters of state workspaces aren’t being used, and almost a quarter of the state’s workforce is allowed to work from home up to five days a week. Lawmakers questioned at the time, why the state is paying so much for unused office space.
