Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
President’s Office Confirms 9am to 1pm Ramadan Working Hours Nationwide
The President's Office confirmed that official government working hours during Ramadan and the first seven days of Shawwal will run from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, unchanged from a directive first issued on March 6, 2022 that set reduced hours for state institutions from 1443 AH onward. The confirmation provides clarity to public sector employees and service users nationwide so ministries, departments and state agencies can plan operations during the fasting period.
