How will HWD attendance align with different state rest days?

Question

Accepted Answer

Hybrid Working Day Attendance to Align with State Rest Days

The implementation of Hybrid Working Day (HWD) for civil servants, effective August 1, 2026, will see attendance schedules coordinated with each state's designated weekly rest day. This ensures that mandatory office days are strategically placed to accommodate varying regional schedules.
Mandatory Office Days Based on Sunday Rest Day

For states observing Sunday as their weekly rest day, civil servants are required to report to the office on Mondays and Fridays. This arrangement is designed to maintain a consistent presence in the workplace across the majority of states that follow this convention.
Adjusted Schedule for States with Friday Rest Day

In Kedah, Kelantan, and Terengganu, where the weekly rest day falls on Friday, the mandatory office days for civil servants will be Sunday and Thursday. This specific adjustment acknowledges the different weekend structures present in these particular states.
No Disruption to Essential and Frontline Services

The Public Service Department has emphasised that the introduction of HWD will not lead to any disruption in essential services. Critical sectors such as security, defence, education, health, and the judiciary will continue their operations without interruption, maintaining their usual service delivery.
