Four-day working week proposal still under scrutiny, says JPA


PUTRAJAYA: The Public Service Department (JPA) says studies are still being made on the proposed implementation of a four-day working week.

Its Director-general Datuk Seri Mohd Shafiq Abdullah said although some countries have begun trialling a four-day working week, the approach should be viewed holistically, especially in terms of its suitability and effectiveness for the public service structure in the country.
