RTO full time is the worst decision. the traffic, parking, personal safety, air quality, horrible will make more difficult on us the state employees. How you want me to be full productive and I spend 1 hour stuck on roads while I’m 20 minutes away from work, you see frustration, with in office people don’t even say good morning. We have technology that make us to 100% Remote work from home. I saw myself more productive when I’m teleworking. Remote work saves our roads, air, and health. Let us be 100% TELEWORK!
Nariman supported: Maintain 5-Day Remote Work for California State EmployeesForcing state employees back to the office disproportionately harms working parents, especially women, who rely on flexible schedules to balance work and caregiving. It will also drive away top talent, leading to inefficiencies and knowledge loss in critical departments. Sacramento already struggles with severe traffic congestion and some of the worst air quality in the nation—this mandate will only make it worse. Remote and hybrid work have proven successful; there is no clear justification for this policy. The state should be leading in flexibility and sustainability, not moving backward.
Richard supported: Maintain 5-Day Remote Work for California State EmployeesTeleworking saves me hundreds of dollars a month in related expenses, and over 40 hours a week in commuting time. Considering the meager pay we state employees receive, forcing us back into the office after EVERYTHING costs way more than it did prior to teleworking amounts to a large pay cut.
Eric supported: Maintain 5-Day Remote Work for California State EmployeesI'm signing this because I have disabled family members who are still WFH, and they are risking injury to go in because the place they work at, doesn't have work accomodations in place to help with the existing disability. You are going to amplify caretaker burnout in all Californian citizens, by forcing disabled people back to office. This affects childcare as well. I personally am a caretaker for disabled children, so this affects my entire family in a very negative way. I had to sacrifice a career in order to be a caretaker for them. So just really sit and think about this. Unless you have a solution for medical, this would hurt us more.
C. supported: Maintain 5-Day Remote Work for California State EmployeesWorking remote was one of the main reasons I pursued a job with the state. It helped with me with saving gas and the wear and tear on my vehicle. Work life balance is key for me.
Melisa supported: Maintain 5-Day Remote Work for California State EmployeesI care about this issue because the impact of all employees returning to the office simultaneously is negative for both state and non-state workers alike. Between excess traffic, emissions, psychological distress, and work-life balance, we should be open minded enough to see the obvious detriments that the executive order sets in motion. We have seen a proven model showing that telework is not only possible, but overall the better option.
Anthony supported: Maintain 5-Day Remote Work for California State EmployeesForcing state workers back to the office causes unnecessary financial hardship on an already struggling working class. Parking downtown is expensive and hard to find. Public transportation is not clean and I feel unsafe. The excess commute time is unnecessary when I can get my work done from home. Remote work has proven successful and there is no reason to go backwards in this decision.
P supported: Maintain 5-Day Remote Work for California State EmployeesThe RTO is nothing but political. So many agencies don’t have equipment, space, parking etc. Productively will greatly reduce and morale will decrease as well. You essentially forced us home 5 years ago and said “telework was the future” and now, going back doesn’t make sense. You’re using us as pawns to revitalize downtown but fail to address the real issues that plague that area! It’s not the lack of state employees, it’s the unhoused people that have taken over. People don’t want to spend money where it’s not safe. I’m safer at home, producing more work and able to WFH when I’m sick. Illnesses are going to increase and then we’ll be burning up our time. None of this makes sense
