Punjab Govt Plans New Work-From-Home Model for 50% Staff

The government is considering a proposal to cut federal expenses by introducing a work-from-home model for federal offices in Punjab.

Under the plan, employees would report to offices only two days a week, while working from home on the remaining days. Staff would be divided into two groups, with each group attending office on alternate days in a rotational system.

According to the proposal, 50 percent of employees would be present in offices during the first two days of the week, while the other half would come in on the following two days and work from home for the rest of the week.

The plan also suggests closing government offices on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, effectively implementing a four-day workweek.

Sources say the proposal aims to reduce government expenditures, conserve energy, and improve efficiency.
