Northfield Township is the latest local community to transition to a four-day work week.

Effective August 12th, operating hours for the Northfield Township Administrative Office, including the Building Department, will be Monday - Thursday from 7:30am - 5:30pm.

Offices will be closed on Fridays.

Officials say the change gives residents and contractors the opportunity for face-to-face service before and/or after their regular work day. The office will also begin staying open during staff lunch periods, no longer closing the front desk during the work day.

The township noted the change in operating hours is for the Administrative Offices only.

Other Departments will maintain their regular in-office schedules:

- Community Center: Monday - Friday 9:00am - 5:30pm, Evenings &
Weekends based upon programming

- Fire Department: Monday - Friday 8:00am - 4:00pm

- Police Department: Monday - Friday 8:30am - 4:30pm

- Wastewater Treatment Plant: Monday - Friday 7:00am - 3:30pm
