Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has approved a reduction in the workweek for public servants to help alleviate their transportation costs.

This decision comes alongside an extension of palliative payments for the next two months.

A statement from the governor’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, confirmed that the directive was issued via a circular from the Office of the Head of Service in Osogbo on Tuesday. The changes reflect Adeleke’s commitment to the welfare of workers amid the ongoing economic challenges in the country.

The statement detailed the new work schedules: “By this circular, therefore, and until another directive is given, the working day schedules for public servants in the state have been approved as follows: Public servants on GL.01 to GL.10 – three days a week; public servants on GL.12 to GL.17 – four days a week.”

It was also noted that these arrangements do not apply to essential personnel, including medical staff, security officers, political office holders, and accounting officers. “It is also important to note that the arrangement regarding which days each public servant in the above categories will work shall be organised by the accounting officers in the Ministries, Departments, and Agencies of government.”

Additionally, the statement mentioned, “The governor has also graciously approved the continuation of palliative payments to public servants in the state for the next two months, pending the commencement of the new minimum wage.”

All accounting officers across Ministries, Departments, and government agencies, including Local Governments, have been directed to ensure compliance with these new measures.
