Maryland Heights begins 4-day work week for employees while extending hours for City Hall
MARYLAND HEIGHTS, Mo. (First Alert 4) – A new year means new hours for the city of Maryland Heights.
Jan. 2 marked the first day of a trial period for a four-day workweek for hundreds of employees.
“We have a large workforce that’s ready to retire, so when we were thinking about recruiting techniques, what could we do that’s different from anybody else?” said Tracey Anderson, city administrator for Maryland Heights.
The city implemented the plan, which will have the majority of employees working four 10-hour days. They will work Monday through Thursday or Tuesday through Friday to ensure city hall remains open five days a week.
The new schedule means they will be able to have longer hours for people coming to do business at City Hall. City Hall will now open at 7 a.m. and close at 5:30 p.m.
The hope is it will make it easier for citizens and visitors to do business with the city.
Anderson said they will see how it goes for the next six months and decide if it should be a permanent change.
