Sharjah24 – WAM: The Federal Authority for Government Human Resources (FAHR) today issued a circular to all ministries and federal authorities on the "Back to School" policy adopted by the UAE Cabinet and launched by the federal government.
The circular aims to improve the quality of life of employees and raise their satisfaction levels, as well as achieve balance in their social and professional lives.
In its circular No.10 for 2022, FAHR urged ministries and federal authorities to enable their employees to benefit from the flexibility of the Back-to-School policy, to help prepare mothers and fathers working for the federal government for the start of the school year and enable them to accompany their children to schools and nurseries.
The policy also stipulates that mothers and fathers working for the federal government and having children in schools must have the flexibility to take their children to school in the morning, whether by issuing a morning delay permit or an early departure permit on the first day of school for a maximum of three hours.
Concerning mothers and fathers who work for the federal government and have children in nurseries, they may be given a morning delay permit for a maximum of three hours during the first week of the school year.
The policy also allows flexible working hours for employees on days of parent meetings, as well as a three-hour leave permit to attend graduation parties, events and school activities.
