The federal government has issued new office timings for all departments to be followed after Ramadan, with the revised schedule taking effect immediately and remaining until further instructions.
Offices operating on a five-day workweek will function from 8:00am to 4:00pm, Monday to Friday, while departments on a six-day week will observe timings from 8:00am to 3:00pm, Monday to Saturday.
In both work schedules, a combined lunch and prayer break has been set from 1:00pm to 1:30pm, as officially notified by the Establishment Division and applied to all relevant federal offices.
