The University of Ibadan, Oyo State, has directed its staff to work for three days a week.
The institution made this disclosure through a special release number, 4642, dated 14 August 2023 and signed by G.O. Saliu, Registrar and Secretary to Council.
It explained that the decision was taken in view of the recent removal of subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), also known as petrol.
It lamented that salary earners who have to commute to work every working day are faced with an aggravation of the condition, given the attendant hike in the transport fare and cost of living.
He added that after a careful consideration of the situation, management of the institution has recommended a temporary work schedule adjustment for members of staff.
He maintained that the senate of the institution, at its meeting held on Thursday, 3 August 2023, considered and approved the decision, which take effect from August 14.
