The Home Office operates in over 250 different workplaces across the UK as well as having a large number of mobile teams working in other locations.

Heads of Department have agreed that 60% minimum office attendance for most staff continues to be the best balance of working for the Civil Service. Office occupancy data for the period July - September has been published, with further publications to happen on a quarterly basis.
