Office of Planning and Sustainable Development

The State of Hawaii continues to assess the telework experience of its employees during the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of teleworking as we move forward, and the impacts on transportation planning.  The Work Where You Live (WWYL) project involves developing and administering a survey to State employees with the purpose of:  establishing a better understanding of telework practices, formulating recommendations to improve the existing government telework policy, as well as define the effects of teleworking on the environment.  This survey and its results are not intended, nor should be interpreted, as creating an obligation to offer or grant telework to any employee.  The offering and granting of telework to employees is at the sole discretion of the proper appointing authority.

This WWYL project is being coordinated through the State of Hawaii’s Office of Planning and the Department of Human Resources Development, in partnership with the City and County of Honolulu’s Department of Transportation Services and the Oahu Metropolitan Planning Organization.  The project was approved and is part of the Oahu Metropolitan Planning Organization’s FY2021 Overall Work Program.
