Fuel Hike: Lagos Government Extends Work-from-home Policy For Workers

By Damilare Adeleye

Govenor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has extended work-from-home policy for workers in the state for the next three months.

The extension was communicated in a circular signed by the state Head of Service, Mr Bode Agoro, on Wednesday.

Recall that on February 28, the governor directed that the workers would work remotely on some days.

He directed that workers on grade levels 01 to 14 were allowed to work from home for two days a week, while those on grade levels 15 to 17 were allowed to work from home for one day a week.

The decision was aimed at reducing the effects of the removal of fuel subsidies on the workers.

Sanwo-Olu stated in Wednesdayโ€™s circular that the policy made positive impacts on workersโ€™ productivity in the various ministries, departments and agencies of the state government.

It was learnt that the extension took effect from today, September 4.
