The Ramadan spiritual journey connects communities together through fasting and prayers. In this case, creating a balance between work and personal life helps boost productivity in the workplace.
Integrating some smart strategies to facilitate work during Ramadan and adapting to the new work environment helps in achieving fruitful results.
For those who consider religious rituals an important part of their daily lives during this holy month, here are four tips that will enable you to improve work-life balance in Ramadan 2024.
Prioritize tasks.
Organizing tasks during Ramadan helps manage tasks and time. Indeed, create team meetings to encourage communication about the deadlines for the tasks and projects. Additionally, distributing responsibilities and cooperation at work create strong bonds among employees. Moreover, setting individual tasks clarifies the work they want to mainly focus on.
Support hybrid work.
Hybrid work makes employees feel more comfortable. It also helps them schedule their personal and religious tasks with their work. Away from work commitments, people can have their own time for iftar suhoor and prayers. Supporting online meetings and offering tools that help with tasks even outside the office are important. This is in addition to their physical presence in the office.
Accept annual leaves.
Employees need to feel that they are not overwhelmed and loaded with tasks. When they have annual leaves, they are more relaxed physically and psychologically to ensure healthy well-being. They will also have more time to spend with their families and enjoy fasting and Ramadan activities. Annual leave enables people to also practice their hobbies.
Put employees’ mental health at the top.
Encourage short breaks and flexible work hours. Listening to employees’ suggestions and needs help to develop a successful work environment. Moreover, creating meditation activities releases stress.
