Teachers to DepEd: Extend work-from-home arrangement COVID19Quarantine
MANILA — A teachers' group has called on the Department of Education to extend the work-from-home setup for educators, fearing that physically reporting to offices under new work arrangements would expose them to the risk of contracting of the new coronavirus.
The work-from-home arrangement for DepEd personnel, including public school teachers, ends on Sunday. New work arrangements decided by the agency's undersecretaries, assistant secretaries and regional directors will be implemented starting Monday. Policarpio said she and her fellow teachers were ordered to physically report to their offices on Monday despite the lack of plans to provide transportation for those who do not own private vehicles.
