I recommend that you write the office circular on your own and upload it here. Some seniors like me will correct it. However, before you issue the circular, I suggest analyzing the work on Saturdays. The points for analysis could be as follows:
a) What is the percentage of employees that work on Saturdays? Is there any pattern among employees who work on Saturdays, such as from a particular section or department?
b) How many hours do they work?
c) What are the reasons for their extra work?
d) Do their bosses like working on Saturdays, and do the staff come for duties on Saturdays just to please their managers?
e) Have you conducted a workload analysis? Do some jobs merit working on Saturdays due to the nature of their work? For example, certain equipment maintenance can only be done on Saturdays, etc.
f) What is the per-hour cost to run the air-conditioning?
Issuing the circular carries no meaning unless you study all the above points. If there is any pattern of extra work on Saturdays, such as the first Saturday or last Saturday, then before issuing the circular, I recommend talking to the managers.
Lastly, before issuing the circular, I recommend convening a meeting of the managers to find out the reasons for the extra work on Saturdays. Involve them in making this decision as well. Do not impose the decision on them. If you force the decision, you may not gain buy-in from them.
