Cyprus public service sets out rules for hybrid remote work

Cyprus’ public service will move to a regulated hybrid working from home model from April 2, 2026, after the department of public administration and personnel issued a new manual setting out how the system will work in practice, including eligibility rules, application steps, equipment standards and binding safeguards on cybersecurity and personal data.

The manual is tied to the 2025 law regulating remote work in the public service, which was approved by the House and published in the official gazette on December 12, 2025.
