Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many and what proportion of staff in his Department have (a) office-based, (b) hybrid and (c) remote-working contracts.

The Cabinet Office remains committed to flexible working and the business benefits that it offers. We expect that most of our staff will be able to work both from home and in the workplace as part of an informal, non-contractual hybrid working arrangement. This is agreed and arranged with staff members individually.

The department does have a small number of homeworking contracts where this is appropriate- as at 31 Dec 2025 we had 126.1 FTE homeworkers out of 5211.0 FTE total, giving a proportion of 2.4%.
