Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has introduced a two-day workweek policy for junior civil servants, aiming to ease their burden and enhance productivity.
This was stated by the State Head of Service, Mr Kehinde Onasanya, on Wednesday.
Onasanya said, “The gesture is aimed at further easing the burden on workers who now face greater challenges commuting to work. It is expected to provide substantial relief while enhancing service delivery through a more motivated and energised workforce.”
He emphasised Governor Abiodun’s commitment to the welfare of workers.
Onasanya urged all accounting officers to implement the policy in their respective Ministries, Departments, and Agencies without compromising service delivery.
He added that Governor Abiodun had introduced the one-day-off work policy in July 2023 for all grade levels, and the current extension to two days off for GL 01-14 is intended to further reduce financial strain and boost productivity.
