These are just two of the stories coming out of the Confederation Building last week that CBC News was able to confirm. Some managers were happy to help their employees work from home, while others did not accommodate workers with children at home. They were told to fill out a pair of forms — one is a work-from-home agreement, while the other is a risk assessment checklist. Workers were told to fill out an “e-work risk assessment” which was extremely thorough and considered unattended children a workplace risk. The government's overall attitude toward work-from-home drew criticism last week, but now the particular policy regarding parents is drawing heat from other advocates.
