Public and private offices will operate for six hours daily from July 28 to 30, with hours from 9 am to 3 pm. 

This new schedule was announced by the Ministry of Public Administration on Saturday. 

Previously, offices had been open for only four hours last Wednesday and Thursday.

As the situation in the country stabilizes and the curfew period is relaxed, office hours are being extended. 

The government had previously implemented a general holiday from last Sunday to Tuesday due to the curfew, but with the easing of restrictions, offices will now follow this reduced schedule.

Certain services will continue as before, including emergency services like electricity, water, gas, fire services, port operations, sanitation, telephone, internet, postal services, and related transportation. 

Additionally, hospitals and emergency medical services, including doctors, medical staff, and transportation for medical supplies, will not be affected by this schedule. 

Offices handling urgent matters will also be exempt.
