From the usual 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. schedule, it will now be from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. to lessen the number of people commuting during rush hours, he said.
Biazon said in the city government, those exempted from the new work schedule are offices providing frontline services.
They will operate a skeletal force between 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to give a chance to people who will transact after 4 p.m.
Biazon also said peace and order offices including the Muntinlupa Traffic Management Bureau, Public Order and Safety Office and City Security Office will maintain a work schedule of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
He said he will issue an executive order to implement the new work schedule.
