Sharjah Announces New Year Holiday for Government Employees

The government of Sharjah has officially announced a public holiday for all government employees to celebrate the upcoming New Year. The holiday, which will be observed on January 1st, aims to allow workers to enjoy the festivities and spend time with their families as the city welcomes 2025.

The announcement was made by the Sharjah Government Human Resources Department, which confirmed that all public sector offices will be closed for the day. This decision aligns with the UAE tradition of marking important national and cultural events with official breaks, ensuring that government workers have an opportunity to recharge.

Private sector businesses in Sharjah are not mandated to observe the holiday, but many are expected to follow suit, offering their employees a day off as well. The move is expected to boost morale and enhance the festive spirit across the emirate.

Authorities have urged citizens and residents to celebrate responsibly and observe safety guidelines during the holiday. Public transport and essential services will remain operational, ensuring smooth access to important facilities.

This announcement further demonstrates Sharjah commitment to supporting the well-being of its workforce while fostering a sense of community during key events.
