5 days working week soon for CG Employees

5 days working week soon for CG Employees

While the government employees in Maharashtra have threatened to go on strike due to the non-implementation of the 7th Pay Commission, the government on the other hand is considering a five day working week. The employees have been demanding a five day working week with Saturday and Sunday as holidays.

The Chief Minister’s office is understood to have given the nod for a five day working week. The clause however is that the employees would have to put in an extra 30 minutes of work between Monday and Friday.
