From that date, working hours for public servants hours are adjusted to 8am-5pm, Monday to Friday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, 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.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSenior officials are working on detailed guidelines to ensure that the emergency services and the education and health systems in the state continue to deliver services 24 hours a day, seven days a week during the transition and beyond. The government will also ramp up its efforts to give public servants access to digital devices and platforms to enable them work effectively from home. Given the significant investments the state government is making in ICT, it will ensure that most of its automated services deliver the levels of performance required to give citizens seamless access.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 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.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kaduna State government on Monday announced that it will commence the transition to a four-day working week from December 1, 2021.
