Unions warn the policy ignores departmental needs and could trigger a mass exodus of experienced staff, many of whom are already considering retirement. Lawmakers are pushing a bill to preserve telework options, framing it as a necessary counterbalance to the governor’s push for in-person collaboration. While Newsom defends the move as vital for workplace connection and business vitality, critics say it risks losing critical talent and ignores the reality that many employees have built their lives around flexible work arrangements.
