The establishment division has issued a notification outlining revised working hours for federal government offices during the holy month of Ramadan, Express News reported.
According to the notification, government offices operating on a five-day workweek will function from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. For offices following a six-day workweek, the working hours will be from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.
Additionally, on Fridays, all government offices will operate from 9:00 am to 12:30 pm to accommodate the Friday prayer break.
Moreover, Pakistan Railways has also adjusted the working hours for reservation offices during Ramadan, ensuring smoother operations for passengers.
As per the railway administration’s announcement, reservation offices working in two shifts will follow new schedules:
Morning shift: 7:30 am to 12:30 pm
Evening shift: 12:30 pm to 5:30 pm
On Fridays, there will be a break from 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm for Jumu’ah prayers.
However, reservation offices operating on a single shift will maintain their existing schedule without any changes. These revised timings will remain in effect until the 15th of Ramadan, after which all reservation offices will revert to their standard operating hours.
