COVID-19: FG Asks Level 12 Workers To Resume Immediately

The National Coordinator of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 Sani Aliyu has announced that civil and public servants from the grade level 12 and above are to resume work immediately. 

Sani who made this announcement at the taskforce daily press briefing in Abuja also revealed that the working hours had been extended to normal office hours from Monday to Friday but added that the use of non-medical face mask is compulsory.

“For government offices and other corporate offices, we are now extending working hours to normal official hours from Monday to Friday, with the mandatory use of non-medical face masks.

“We encourage work at home policy for civil/public servants below the grade level of 12.

“Essential staff of grade level 12 and above may be allowed to come to work.

“Our previous cut-off was grade level 14. Temperature checks will be carried out in all official government buildings.

“With industry and labour, the main modification we have is an advisory for banks to limit the number of customers within the operating areas to 50 percent occupancy within the banking halls in order to allow for physical distancing and to limit their workers to 75 percent or less. But banking operations shall continue as usual” he said.

It will be recalled that only workers from level 14 and above were earlier asked to resume prior to the new directive.
