Not just that, the new working week also showed the attendance rate to go up to 74% while sick leave rates decreased by 46%. A 61% rise in the rate of providing e-government services outside official working hours has also been seen!
Improvement in job performance increased by 90% and 91% of employees said they felt happy after the new rules! 87% of people said that the move had a positive impact on their mental health and 85% said the system helps them keep a work-life balance!
