Bayelsa Govt Endorses Agricultural Workdays For Civil Servants To Boost Food Security

The Bayelsa State Civil Service Commission has approved a bi-weekly farming interval period for workers, trimming the workweek to three days.

It instructed that the remaining two operational days be allocated for agricultural activities to advance food security within the state.

This is according to a circular signed by the Bayelsa State Head of Service Biobelemoye Charles-Onyeama.

However, the development that followed Governor Douye Diri’s approval only affects civil servants from Grade level 14 and below.

Teachers, medical personnel, and other staff on essential services are excluded from the directive.

   

The move is expected to become effective from the 29th of April, 2024, and will be for six months.
