Following the UAE government’s announcement of the new work week for government employees next year, Kitopi is pleased to announce that Kitopi UAE will observe a revised work week from the beginning of 2022.

Effective 1 January 2022, Kitopi UAE will be observing a 5-day work week from Mondays to Fridays, with Saturdays and Sundays as the official weekend.


In addition to the changes above, Kitopi has formalized its work processes both within the UAE and across markets to honor the Friday prayer time and to be inclusive of all colleagues. Among the changes are the observance of a no-formal-meeting period during prayer time and a two-hour prayer break for Muslim colleagues, with colleagues encouraged to work remotely on Fridays if their job nature allows. Kitopi will continue to practise its Work from Anywhere policy, an announcement made in July 2020, in its effort to safeguard the well-being of colleagues.


‘We applaud the UAE government’s leadership in moving the work week to better align with that of the global market. This is not only beneficial in enhancing the country’s economic competitiveness, but improving the work-life balance and well-being of the people’, said Mohamad Ballout, CEO of Kitopi. ‘As a company, we welcome this change and look forward to moving to the new work schedule. Beyond enabling us to better align with both the UAE and international markets, we are confident that this shift will bring about various benefits at an individual level. With many of our colleagues having school-going children and family members abroad, this move is set to promote more family time, healthier work-life balance, and ultimately, enhanced well-being’.

Interesting to see Kitopi aligning with the UAE’s revised 5-day work week and embracing flexibility, a people-centric shift that boosts productivity.

In today’s dynamic job market, finding a resume writing service near me is more relevant than ever for career growth.Kudos to Kitopi for championing both innovation in operations and empathy in employee well-being.

Kitopi UAE is intriguing when it comes to the new work week. It might require some time getting used to adjusting schedules, as well as the study and deadlines balancing. Similarly, a student will be able to keep up with his or her coursework as the busy weeks unfold by using CIPD assignment help in Dubai.

That's a thoughtful and progressive move by Kitopi! Aligning with the new UAE work week not only shows cultural and social awareness but also highlights your commitment to employee well-being.
