The Permanent Secretary to the Scottish Government has responsibility for the operational running of the organisation, including the workforce related hybrid working policy.The Scottish Government’s hybrid working policy provides flexibility for alternative arrangements where regularly working in person in line with the 40% target may not be practical. Staff are able to have their circumstances considered via an interim, informal location-exemption process, which recognises that some staff may, for historical reasons, live a considerable distance from their contractual workplace.I would encourage the member to direct any further questions on this matter to the Permanent Secretary.
