The Lagos State Government has announced the termination of the remote work policy for public servants, a measure initially introduced to mitigate the impact of fuel subsidy removal.
The Head of Service, Mr. Bode Agoro, made the announcement in a statement shared with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday.
According to Agoro, the decision aligns with the implementation of the new minimum wage in the public service and aims to enhance service delivery.
“It is hereby notified for general information that the governor has approved the cancellation of the work-from-home initiative in the Lagos State Public Service.”
He further clarified that the initiative, which had been in effect since February 2024, will officially end on March 31, 2025.
Furthermore, he directed Accounting Officers to disseminate the information widely within the public service.
“Accounting Officers are instructed to give this circular the service-wide publicity it deserves.”
