The Eid Al Fitr holiday break has been confirmed for those who work in the private sector in the UAE.
On Wednesday, the UAE Ministry of Human Resources and and Emiratisation (MOHRE) announced that Ramadan 29 and Shawwal 3 would be a paid holiday for all those working in the private sector.
This is set to be three days of paid holiday days for private sector workers due to Eid Al Fitr.
At present Ramadan 29 is expected to fall on Friday, May 22, meanwhile Shawwal 3 will likely fall on Tuesday, May 26, but the exact dates need to be confirmed based on moon-sighting observation.
Meanwhile the holiday break for public sector employees was announced earlier this week – UAE public sector workers will get five days off.
