The City of Sacramento is on the cusp of transformation as most state workers are set to return to the office four days a week under a mandate ordered by California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

The move is expected to impact a lot of people directly and indirectly because a little more than 16%, roughly one in six, of people employed in the Sacramento area are state workers.

Newsom's original plan was for state workers to return to the office under this new telework model in July 2025, before being delayed by a year. State employees have only been required to be in the office two days a week since 2024.
