Director General of the Planning Institute of Jamaica (PIOJ) Dr Wayne Henry is suggesting that flexible, hybrid, and remote-work arrangements could help to manage fuel price shocks, reduce pressure on imports, and strengthen Jamaica’s economic resilience by reducing commuting activity and lowering fuel demand.In a presentation to the Economy and Production Committee of Parliament on Wednesday, the PIOJ head said these work arrangements should not be viewed solely as workplace policies but as practical economic- and social-policy tools.
