The Met Office has had the ability to track and report totals for the provision of monitors, mice and keyboards for staff working from home, where required, since August 2024. Since then, the total cost to date is £21,551.95.
For the period preceding August 2024, it is not possible to identify the costs specifically related to home working without incurring disproportionate cost.
