The Lagos State government has extended the flexible work hours for civil servants in the state by an extra three months.
The state introduced the flexible work initiative early this year to ease the economic hardship occasioned by fuel subsidy removal and other federal government policy initiatives.
The state’s Head of Service, Bode Agoro, disclosed this in a statement on Friday.
He said the extension would begin on June 3 and end on September 3.
The statement read: “Mr. Governor, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu has magnanimously approved the extension of the Flexible Work Initiative for an additional Three (3) Months with effect from 3rd June to 3rd September 2024.
