The public sector will take a nine-day sabbatical from April 8 to April 14, 2024, with the UAE government announcing that work will resume on April 15.
This is in advance of the festive Eid Al Fitr celebration, which is anticipated to significantly alter the UAE’s economy. The status of the Eid Al Fitr vacations for the private sector, however, is the one that everyone is particularly curious about.
Eid holiday
Private sector employees are on tenterhooks, waiting to hear the exact dates of their holidays, while the public sector is rejoicing in the impending long weekend.
For Muslims worldwide, Eid Al Fitr, sometimes referred to as the “Festival of Breaking the Fast,” is a deeply significant religious and cultural occasion.
This signifies the end of Ramadan, a month filled with prayer, fasting, and introspection. One of the five pillars of Islam, fasting during Ramadan is very important to Muslims since it is a time for introspection, purification, and fortifying one’s relationship with God.
