The government has rearranged the office hours for all government, semi-government, autonomous, and semi-autonomous organisations for the upcoming holy month of Ramadan from 9 am to 3:30 pm.
The Ministry of Public Administration issued a notification in this regard on Monday.
There will be a 15-minute break from 1:15 pm to 1:30 pm for Zuhr prayers, said the notice.
However, banks, insurance companies, financial institutions, the post, railway, hospitals, state-run mills and factories, and other emergency service-providing organisations will fix their office hours according to their laws and consider the public interest.
Besides, the Supreme Court will fix the office timing for all courts.
The holy month of Ramadan is expected to begin on March 1, subject to sighting the moon.
