The UAE’s Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation announced truncated hours of working for employees within the private sector during Ramadan this year.

Nasser Bin Thani Al Hamli, Minister of Human Resources and Emiratisation, said that there would be an official reduction of two working hours for private sector employees during Ramadan.

Announcing the decision on Saturday, he added that decision was as per the federal law No. 8 for 1980 that dealt with regulating labour relations.

Last week, the Federal Authority for Government Human Resources said that public sector employees will only need to work from 9am-2pm, except for those whose nature of their work requires them to work outside of these hours.
