SACRAMENTO, Calif. —

The California Department of Labor has opened its newly renovated building on 9th Street in Sacramento, which will serve about 2,500 state workers with updated and efficient office spaces.

Crews cut the ribbon Wednesday on the newly renovated building, which includes critical safety improvements and upgrades to the office space.

In July, the governor ordered state workers to return to the office at least four days a week.

“It’s certainly important to provide space as we look to return to office more days per week,” said Secretary of Government Operations Nick Maduros. “But it’s also really important that we provide our state team members with space that’s modern and functional for the way we work today. It’s not just about providing nicer space, it’s about providing space that’s more efficient.”

The project took about four years to complete, starting back in August 2022.
