\n
Kaduna State Government will commence a transition to a four-day working week in the state and in the interim, permit public servants to work from home for one day per week.<\/div>\n
\n
\nThis was contained in a statement issued by Special Adviser to the Governor (Media & Communication) Muyiwa Adekeye.<\/p>\n

This measure, according to the government,\u00a0 is designed to help boost productivity, improve work-life balance and enable workers to have more time for their families, for rest and for agriculture.<\/p>\n

The measure also reflects lessons learnt from managing the Covid-19 pandemic which required significant relaxations of old working traditions and the ascendance of virtual and remote working arrangements.<\/p>\n

” Kaduna State Government will begin implementation of the transitional arrangements in the public service of the state from 1st December 2021. From that date, working hours for public servants hours are adjusted to 8am-5pm, Monday to Friday,\u2019\u2019 the statement said.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019However, all public servants, other than those in schools and healthcare facilities, will work from home on Fridays. This interim working arrangement will subsist until the government is ready to move to the next stage of the transition which will culminate in the four-day week across all MDAs in the state.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
