Salida, CO – The City of Salida is announcing the launch of a new pilot program that will see city offices operating on a 4-day workweek schedule. Effective June 10th, city employees will have the option to work four 10-hour days from Monday to Thursday, with city offices closed to the public on Fridays.
This initiative aims to enhance work-life balance for city employees, increase productivity, and improve service delivery to the public. Essential services, including emergency response, will continue to operate on their regular schedules to ensure public safety and service continuity.
City offices in the Touber Building will be extending their hours from 8:00am to 5:00pm to accommodate for the new pilot program. City Administrator, Christy Doon, stated that “we have heard positive feedback from Chaffee County on their program and are determining whether this flexible scheduling would work for the City as well”.
Residents and businesses are encouraged to adjust their interactions with city offices accordingly and take advantage of the extended hours from Monday to Thursday. The City Salida remains dedicated to maintaining high standards of service and ensuring that the needs of the community are met.
Additional updates and information will be available on the city’s official website at www.cityofsalida.com.
