A top civil servant says she only wants her staff to go into the office two days a week so women aren't dominated by men and she can continue using her Peloton bike.
Sarah Healey, the permanent secretary for the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, said meetings would still be held over Zoom, even for those working in the office, in a bid to stop male employees asserting themselves over their female colleagues.
The mother-of-three, who has hailed working from home as a 'very, very good thing' in terms of spending more time with her children, spoke at the London Tech Week conference yesterday, the Telegraph reports.
She said: 'I find big meetings with lots of people are most effectively done online because you can see better who wants to speak.
'In fact I have noticed this as well, as a woman sometimes struggling with that. 'Can I get my word in?''
