It would nonetheless be a huge mistake for the city to accept this framing. It would be expensive (bad for NYC taxpayers), it would create two tiers of employees, and it would cause remote workers to demand pay parity with in-person workers, ultimately making it even more expensive (even worse for taxpayers). The city should reject the idea that remote work is an employee benefit.
