LEGAZPI CITY – The city government announced Monday that it will return to the regular five-day workweek starting in July.
During the morning convocation, Mayor Hisham Ismail said the change would give employees ample time to prepare for the resumption of the regular workweek during the first week of next month.
“To better provide services to the people, especially those who are asking for assistance,” he said.
Ismail added that with the ceasefire and peace deal between the United States and Iran, he hopes to see better outcomes, especially in oil prices.
The mayor said the July return decision took into account employees’ prior medical checkup schedules and personal matters.
Ismail added that the compressed four-day workweek in the city has been successful, noting that the quality of service for Legazpi residents has not declined. (PNA)
