Damian McCarthy, CEO of HR consultancy HR Buddy, shares his insights on the proposed law in Victoria allowing workers to work from home two days a week. While he supports remote work, he opposes making it a legal right, highlighting roles like emergency services that can't operate remotely. He raises concerns about how such legislation might affect recruitment in essential fields and the potential for greater workplace divisions. Additionally, Damian warns that this could deter investment and innovation, suggesting the proposal is politically motivated.
