Sanwo-Olu Extends Work-from-home Policy For Civil Servants  

Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has extended the state’s work-from-home policy for its workers for the next three months.

The state’s head of service Bode Agoro announced the extension in a circular on Wednesday.

The extension took effect on September 4.

On February 28, the governor directed that state 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 subsidy on the workers.

Sanwo-Olu stated in Wednesday’s circular that the policy made positive impacts on workers’ productivity in the various ministries, departments and agencies of the state government.
