During Ramzan period there is no need of separate attention for Muslim Employees. They have to work as usual. The Almighty god have not told us to sacrifice your employer wealth. The Work which we are doing is also given by the almighty god. The Muslim employees would ensure that the employer who gives salary should not be at loss.

Sushma I can understand your problem but at the same time this is also true that they can eat in the above mentioned duration only.
But of curse you cannot justify it to your seniors. Moreover I personally feel that one should do justification with job as well along with religion.And 2.5 hrs a day is a lot approx 1/4th of a working day.
I suggest you should keep 2 options open in front of them & ask them to choose one:
1. They should either come early or go late to coverup working hours and can take a break of 1 hr at the time of Iftaar (7:15-8.15pm) or Sehri(3:30-4:30am).
2. They should cover up total working hours in a month i.e working on weekends/late hours once Ramzan is over.
Hope this will solve your problem.

Dear Madam,
I'm sure you wouldn't mind correcting your grammar, especially if you are in the HR section.
"My Quire was How to Manage my staff working hours in the month of Ramjan"
You actually wanted to say: "My query........."
Sorry, I hope you take no offence.

Dear all,

I guess it's going on too long now. By this time Sushma would have got the answer. I mean, actually, it's very simple - muslim employees can be provided 1/2 hour gap for taking food during their fast opening and closing timings and in return employees can be flexible enough to accomodate the time lost by working additional 1 hour, before or after work hours, or during weekends, as is deemed fit by the employer in consultation with the employees. Fasting employees can bring their own tiffins/food, as they do bring their own lunch during other months, or, the company can provide food, if they provide lunch, evening snacks etc to all employees. I feel it isn't a complicated topic and just needs good faith and small meaningful discussion between employees and management or HR. If muslim employees are given this much flexibility it'll enhance their morale and make them see upon their company as employee-friendly. And, as such, it's justified as they're putting up those many hours and not loosing anything for the company.

On top of this, the month of Ramzan teaches and motivates one to be honest, trust-worthy, and many such good virtues, so in the end the company gains to be having honest people working for it. In fact, every other religion guides people to such good virtues, hence such concessions and flexibility should be accorded to people of all faith to be able to move along with their religious practices that do not hamper others.
