Venezuela says it will cut the working day for public sector workers to five-and-a-half hours to conserve energy, down from eight to nine hours.
The initiative is part of a nationwide electricity rationing plan.
Vice-President Jorge Arreaza said there had been a surge in energy demand due to extremely hot weather. He said state employees would now work from 07:30-13:00 to save on air conditioning.
On Monday, local media reported blackouts across the country.

I use it just once. I paid 3,6 euros for a short ride inside Lisbon. The driver had a tie and open the door for my wife. His name is Hugo. The car was very clean. Mind that 3,6 euros is below the minimum fare you pay just for entering a normal cab.
In Portugal the Taxis Union and the Courts decided that Hugo does not have the right to work.
It's a real pity because with UBER you can send a car to pick your kid in the night and you know where the car is and at what time it arrived at your door.
Portugal isn't reforming at all, we are a communist country with a right wing government. In Portugal even the right think as communists.
