In January 2013, President Jammeh effected a change in the official working days and hours of The Gambia.
In that vein, since 1 February 2013, official working days in the country have reduced from five to four, Monday through Thursday, and working hours increased from eight to ten hours; that is from 8am to 6pm.
Hitherto, official working days in the country are from Monday to Friday, and hours from 8am to 4pm.
The Gambia National Trade Union Congress has appealed for the
reduction of working hours for women workers to enable them to return home to do
their domestic chores.
“On behalf of the women workers, we appeal to the Honourable
Minister of Trade, Regional Integration and Employment to consider reducing the
hours of work per day to facilitate them to return home on time for their
domestic chores,” the secretary general of the National Trade Union Congress
said.In January 2013, President Jammeh effected a change in the official working days and hours of The Gambia.

The Gambia is now one of the very few countries in the
world with a mandatory four-day working week.
The country is now shut
down for a whole day while most of the rest of the world continues doing
business and financial markets remain active.
The reason advanced by the Office of the President for
this sudden move was that Friday will be a rest day, a day Muslims can use to
worship Allah. Also, people will have
more time to do their agricultural work as part of the President Jammeh’s call
for Gambians to “eat what you grow and grow what you eat”.
I drop a leave a response whenever I like a
ReplyDeletearticle on a website or I have something to valuable to contribute to the conversation.
Usually it's a result of the fire displayed in the post I read. And on this article "'Working hours should be reduced for women workers'". I was actually moved enough to post a thought :-) I do have a few questions for you if it's
okay. Is it just me or do a few of the responses look as if
they are coming from brain dead individuals?
:-P And, if you are writing at other online social sites, I would like to follow you.
