MANDAUE CITY, Cebu – The Talisay City government has opened a Work From Home (WFH) station to especially accommodate those who are assigned on graveyard shifts.
The city’s WFH station is located at the City Hall grounds. It has electricity and strong Internet connection, according to Mayor Gerald Anthony Gullas.
“I have read your comments and messages concerning our WFH setup for those WFH employees who seek for a workplace samtang wala pay kuryente and internet connection sa ilang lugar,” Gullas said in a social media post late afternoon on Friday, January 7.
“Sa akong pagsubay sa inyung mga concerns and suggestions, ubay-ubay gyud ang nispeak on behalf of those in the graveyard shift. And yes, WE HEAR YOU,” he added.
