The Lagos State Government has extended its work-from-home policy for workers for the next three months in order to alleviate the pain caused by the increase in fuel pump prices.
On Wednesday, the State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, granted the extension via a circular signed by the state Head of Service, Bode Agoro.
Recall that on February 28, the governor mandated that the staff work remotely on certain days.
He directed that employees in grades 1-14 be permitted to work from home two days per week, while those in grades 15-17 be allowed to work from home one day per week.
The action was intended to mitigate the effects of the elimination of fuel subsidies on workers.
Sanwo-Olu claimed in Wednesday’s circular that the policy had a beneficial influence on worker productivity in the various ministries, departments, and agencies of the state government.
The extension took effect from September 4.
