Some New York City municipal workers will be able to keep working on a hybrid schedule under a pilot program the city is extending, Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday.

The one-year extension will allow eligible city workers to work remotely for up to two days per week through May 31, 2026, Adams said in a release.

The city and its largest public employee union, District Council 37, previously agreed on the pilot program in May 2023. It officially kicked off on June 1, 2023.

“As we continue to settle into our post-pandemic reality, we must ensure that we continue to make city employment an attractive and accessible option for the working-class New Yorkers who serve and run this city every day,” Adams said in a statement. “I have always said that any flexible work programs the city offers must acknowledge the reality that there are some roles that cannot be performed remotely.”

“The extension of this successful pilot allows the continuation of flexibility for our workforce and the protection of the core services that New Yorkers rely on every day,” he added.

As part of the 2023 agreement, the city and District Council 37 leadership established a “Work Flexibility Committee” that helps facilitate discussions on topics ranging from work flexibility to employee morale, the release said.

The city said it will keep working with the union to monitor the pilot program’s progress.
