In alignment with Governor Adeleke’s commitment to the welfare of workers and in response to the current economic climate, the Office of the Head of Service issued a circular to announce these changes.
According to the circular, the revised working day schedules for public employees in the state will take effect immediately, unless otherwise directed. However, personnel in critical roles, such as medical staff, security personnel, political office holders, and accounting officials, are exempt from these new arrangements.
