6/17/25, 4:02 PM Dubai to Implement ‘Our Flexible Summer’ Initiative Across All Government Entities
Aligned with the ‘Year of Community,’ the expanded initiative allows each government entity to
tailor the flexible work arrangements to their needs. Employees will be split into two groups: one
working eight hours from Monday to Thursday with Friday off, and another working seven hours
Monday to Thursday plus 4.5 hours on Friday, maintaining the official five-day workweek.
Abdullah Ali bin Zayed Al Falasi, DGHR Director-General, emphasized the initiative’s
alignment with Dubai’s strategic vision.
“Our Flexible Summer reflects our commitment to placing
people at the center of government policies,”
he said.
“It fosters a supportive work environment that balances
institutional efficiency with employee well-being, advancing
Dubai’s goal of delivering flexible, sustainable, and people-
focused government services.”
The initiative is a clear move toward a modern government workplace that prioritizes flexibility
and employee satisfaction while sustaining high institutional performance.
