Reduced Working Hours for Public Employees
October 7, 2025
Public employees will work a six-hour shift instead of the usual eight, if they meet the criteria for reduced working hours. This regulation aims to improve the balance between professional and family life. The reduction in working hours will also lead to a proportional decrease in salaries. However, employees on reduced hours will not be affected in terms of promotions and pension benefits. Eligible individuals include parents of minors, caregivers, and employees with disabilities or serious health issues.
