“This initiative demonstrates our firm commitment to enhancing the government work environment,
making it more adaptable and responsive to the needs of employees and the community,” he said.

“The implementation of this year’s expanded edition, builds on the successful outcomes of the 2024

hours from Monday to Thursday and enjoy Friday as a full holiday, while the second group will work
seven hours from Monday to Thursday and 4.5 hours on Friday.
