Good Practice
Occasional Telework (needs approval)
urgent (for example weather); give reason on form or call supervisor, explain and agree on what you will work on from home
non-urgent (no reason needs to be given), explain what you will work on; make request the day before, before COB so it can be discussed if needed
For all Teleworking see the rules in the operational circular
