We still had country wide lockdown just a few months after a +90% population wide vaccine uptake in my home country. Omicron opened up society, not a single other pandemic measure and that includes masks.

On another note. With EU countries being so loud about green transitions I would have thought encouraging WFH would have enormous environmental benefits.

There is a plethora of green fees on every single transportation fuel source that we have come to depend on.

Whats greener than not clogging up the roads at all ?

Wonder why EU simply does not ban mandatory in office attendance for work that can be done from home, unless you can show that it is detrimental. WFH school teachers for example. Remote learning for children was a catastrophe.

Imagine the tonnes of CO2 saved.

I wondered the same thing, and I assume the key detail is "can be done from home", because implementation, monitoring and enforcement of something like this could be pretty harmful for businesses and employees. Imagine having to document why you need your employees in the office for certain types of meetings, but not others.
