Quick Glance: Sri Lanka provides public employees an extra day off to cultivate food.
  • The government of Sri Lanka has approved a four-day workweek for public sector employees to help them cope with a persistent fuel scarcity and to encourage them to grow food.

  • The island nation, which employs over one million people in the public sector, has been beset by a severe foreign exchange shortfall, leaving it unable to pay for crucial imports of fuel, food, and medication.

  • "It seems appropriate to grant government officials leave of one working day ... to engage in agricultural activities in their backyards or elsewhere as a solution to the food shortage that is expected," the government information office said in a statement.
