I already thought state employees only worked four days? Might as well make it official.
“[Last] Monday, a commission created by Gov. Robert F. McDonnell (R) voted to approve that recommendation [a four-day, ten-hour per day, work week] as well as almost two dozen others to shave money from the state budget while making government more user-friendly and efficient.”
This gives state workers Friday off, but doesn’t reduce hours or salary. Some agencies, such as law enforcement and museums would be exempt from the governor’s reform commissions’ plan.
As long as the governor concurs with the recommendation, a four-day work week for state employees is as good as done, as the General Assembly doesn’t have to chime in.
