What the petition asks
Make it a legal right for employees to work from home if viable for them to do so with office working only when there is a business need.
Climate change is effecting us all, we need to cut co2 output & cutting out unnecessary commutes to work would help cut millions of tons every year. If you can work at home the same way as at work then it should be law to do so.
