The Federal Government has directed public servants on levels 1 – 12 to work from home until further notice.

Head of Service of the Federation, Folashade Yemi-Esan disclosed this in a memo on Monday, saying it was a measure to curb the spread of coronavirus.

She said the directive takes effect from Tuesday, March 24.

However, she said those offering essential services are exempted from the work-from-home directive.

Also, the HoS urged the public servants that will remain at work to reduce the number of visitors they will receive.

“As you are no doubt aware, the Federal Government has taken a number of measures to manage the identified cases of COVID – 1 9 and curtail its spread,” the memo read.

“Government is concerned about the welfare and safety of all public servants just as it is about other Nigerians. All public servants are, therefore, strongly advised to follow the measures being put in place by government to curtail the spread of the pandemic.

“As a further step to check the spread of COVID-19, all non-essential pubiic servants on grade level 12 and below are to work from home with effect from Tuesday 24th March, 2020 until further notice,” Yemi-Esan said.
