The rules for working from home stipulate that both employees and their work should meet related requirements, and federal authorities should identify suitable jobs that can be done from home and organise appropriate tasks and duties for employees on Fridays approved by direct supervisors, in coordination with heads of departments and human resources departments.

The weekly work system for the federal government will prioritise employees who live far from their workplaces or have specific conditions that make it hard for them to travel.
