Press Release: Minnesota State Workers Return to Office
ABC 6 News reports that thousands of Minnesota state employees are transitioning back to in-person work as Governor Tim Walz enforces a new order. Starting this week, approximately 15,000 remote workers living within 50 miles of their offices must return at least 50% of the time. Observers noted a noticeable uptick in activity around the Capitol grounds, with many employees returning for the first time since 2020.
Jake Indihar, a representative from MnDOT, commented on the gradual return, stating, “There’s not a lot of people in our office today, so I think like Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday there’s gonna be more people back.” This shift marks a significant step towards normalcy as the state adapts to changing work dynamics post-pandemic.
The immediate impact of this policy change will affect employee schedules and office dynamics across various departments. The ongoing updates will continue to be provided by the ABC 6 News team, ensuring that the community stays informed on local, regional, and national developments, including sports and weather forecasts.
