It’s subject lines like these that motivate you and make you feel like you’re loving Dubai (pun intended). You might think that shorter work weeks and a long weekend are part of the same story, but they’re actually not 😜
NEWS
Some Dubai Employees Will Get A 4-day work Week This Summer
Starting July 1, summer workdays in Dubai are about to look a little different for some government employees 👏
Thanks to the “Our Flexible Summer” initiative, staff can enjoy shorter work weeks until September 12 — yes, that means a potential Friday off.
Good news for you! Government departments can now split their employees into two groups, based on what suits their operations best.
Group 1 will work for 8 hours from Monday to Thursday and enjoy a full day off on Friday ✨
Group 2 will work 7 hours from Monday to Thursday and 4.5 hours on Friday, keeping Fridays short and sweet 😍
The Dubai Government Human Resources Department (DGHR) announced this move following the success of a pilot run in 2024.
