KADUNA PUBLIC SERVANTS TO WORK FROM HOME ON FRIDAYS STARTING DEC 1

The new development however did not include those in schools and healthcare facilities.

This was disclosed in a statement by the Special Adviser to the Governor on Media and Communication, Muyiwa Adekeye.

The statement titled 'KDSG Begins Transition To Four-day Working Week From 1st December 2021' noted that. "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.

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.

The state government expects the required legal and regulatory framework to be in place by January 2022.

"This will also enable the organised private sector to engage with the process and agree a longer transition period to a four-day working week."
