The UAE government has announced that federal government departments can now apply to work a four-day workweek, starting from July 1, 2023.
Under the latest circulation by the fedral authority for human resources, full-time employees can apply for a four-day workweek provided they complete 40 working hours a week and it is mutually agreed by their employer.
Last year, the UAE government moved to a four and ahalf two day workweek, working half-day on Fridays with flexible working hours and work-from-home options on Fridays.
Sharjah went one step further and implemented a four day work week back in January 2022, with Friday, Saturday and Sunday off.
