🌙 Ramadan Kareem! Part of effective Internal Communications in the UAE is making sure your organisation understands how to support Muslim colleagues observing Ramadan during this important month. Here are 5 simple tips: 👇 - Ask questions! Don't shy away from asking colleagues how they're doing and what Ramadan means to them. It's a special and proud time for many. - Be mindful that colleagues may be more tired than usual during the Ramadan month, due to fasting (including no water) between sunrise and sunset. - Provide flexibility around working hours, to support the needs of colleagues and their families. - Reschedule or shorten meetings that aren't business critical. - Support your colleagues who are fasting to take regular rest breaks throughout the day. Wishing you a peaceful and happy Ramadan. ✨ #communications #ramadan #uae
