Remote Work

In reply to Mr WHETSTONE (Chaffey) (19 June 2025). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier): I have been advised that for the Audit Office of South Australia:

The budgeted expenditure for remote work infrastructure for the financial year 2025-26, and for previous years 2023-24 and 2024-25 is as follows:

2023-24 2024-25 2025-26
$'000 $'000 $'000
Expenditure on remote work infrastructure 0 0 0


Audit Office of South Australia employees are required to work remotely at client sites and the office incurs expenditure to support this. Our working from home policy specifically states that:

The office site (State Administration Centre or client site) is regarded as the primary place of work and equipment will be provided for this workplace. While home workplaces need to comply with health and safety requirements, taxpayers' money will not be used to set up home offices.

Employees are responsible for all costs they may incur while working from home, including telephone, electricity, data usage and insurance. They are also responsible for any costs (including time) incurred in travelling from home to attend any scheduled work commitments.
