Victoria’s new premier, Jacinta Allan’s successor, Steve Carroll, says he is open to changes to government work-from-home arrangements, following calls from business groups to scrap existing work-from-home laws. Multiple outlets report Carroll’s pledge to take a more pro-business approach than the previous Labor premier and suggest he may reconsider current workplace policy settings that require or regulate working from home. Industry leaders are urging the government to remove the work-from-home rules, arguing they are a constraint on business operations. The reporting notes that Carroll has left the door open to reform, but does not indicate that a decision has been made or that legislation has already been introduced. The coverage frames the issue as part of broader expectations from industry that the new government will deliver policy changes aimed at improving the business environment. Overall, sources agree the push for reform is coming from industry, and that Carroll’s public stance is that he is willing to consider altering the current framework.
