Newsom Orders State Return to Office, Noting Custodial Staff Already in Everyday

(The Center Square) - California Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered state employees to return to the office four days a week by July 1, 2025, noting that state offices’ custodial, janitorial, and maintenance staff — and much of the public — are already working in person every day. The governor also ordered the state’s human resources department to make it easier for the state to hire former federal employees who may have been impacted by recent federal cuts.
