The 2026 Economic Policy Statement and Budget of the government points at increased production vis a vis the expectation that all hands would be on deck to drive the state to prosperity, which of course is on a good path.
In line with this, one would invoke the provisions in the Genesis 2:3 where God in his own wisdom rested after days of hard work. Though his part may not be necessarily equated to physical travails like mixing and carrying concrete, there is high conviction that good rest increases imaginattive power to make better decisions which is the hallmark of higher production.
Paradoxically, Sundays turn to be days of hardest work in Ghana. People are seeing travelling long distances to church, spending long hours in meetings, performing crazy dances in church premises and hosts of other engagements that totally affect production on Mondays in particular and other days in General. Such sentiments grow in the minds of many Ghanaians, hating Mondays as a working day.
As the sole aim of Sunday meetings is to hear the word of God, it can be done for ONE HOUR so as to create enough space for workers to rest towards the weeks activities.
When significant consideration is given to this, it can in a long way help in marginal increased productivity.
