UAE Reduces Working Hours For All Private Sector Employees
The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation has announced a reduction in regular working hours for all private-sector workers in the country by two hours during Ramadan 2020.
Ramadan started on April 24, Friday and is expected to last for 29-30 days based on the lunar calendar.
In the implementation of guidelines in the UAE to battle COVID-19, many employees are working from home. In Dubai, offices and businesses have been asked to reduce staff at the offices to 30% or less while the rest work from home. Government offices have also started strict work from home policies in line with COVID-19 efforts being taken in the country.
