Many “infidel” employers remain uneducated on certain aspects of Ramadan. They may also not know how to “cater” to Muslim employees during this time. But learning more about the occasion and explicitly showing support to Muslim workers can make Muslims feel a sense of belonging.
Shrm RAMADAN is the fourth pillar of Islam and the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. From April 2 to May 2 this year, all Muslims who have reached puberty are required to abstain from eating, drinking and smoking daily from dawn until sunset. (In other words, they skip lunch). For example, intermittent fasting can result in headaches, lethargy and crankiness.
While co-workers may be uncomfortable eating around their Muslim colleagues, they shouldn’t feel this way. Muslims participating in Ramadan witness their children eating in front of them, as young kids are excluded from fasting. Just be sure to avoid offering food to us during this time.”
How infidel employers should support Muslim employees during Ramadan:
For example, colleagues and managers should wish Muslim workers a “happy, blessed and successful Ramadan,” Imtiaz said. These words can convey awareness of Ramadan and kindness to Muslim employees during this time, he noted.
“We can also show support and kindness simply by asking questions and expressing a willingness to learn more,” Imtiaz said.
Managers can also take the time to provide special considerations for Muslim employees. This can mean decreasing work hours as needed or allocating more demanding tasks for the morning when those who are fasting typically have more energy.
If Muslim employees are required to work late, employers should allow some time and space for them to break the fast and perform a prayer during sunset, Mitchell said. This break in work is also important for employees such as police officers or firefighters, who may work evening shifts.
Flexibility is particularly important during Eid ul-Fitr, a festival marking the end of Ramadan. Mitchell likened the celebration to Christmas, as many Muslims take a few days off from work to celebrate. They often attend a prayer and sermon in a mosque and exchange gifts with loved ones.
But Muslim workers might not know the exact date of Eid ul-Fitr until hours before it happens, as the celebration depends on the sighting of the crescent moon. The festival can last between one and three days.
“Muslim employees might not know until night before,” Mitchell said. “Employers should be willing to accommodate.”

Spring has sprung, blood will gush, bodies will vaporize, heads will fall, etc., ad nauseum.
Remember 2014? 5,000+- people slaughtered by the hordes of mohamhead during ramadeath. And, just a few years ago during ramadeath in that short Israel war when the Izzies kill about a thousand Palis? Well, the moslems killed more or their own during the same time frame, but we never heard about that, did we?
Pray Hard says
When does the usual slaughter start?
BareNakedIslam says
Eid which comes after Ramadan
Jack Rider says
businesses should schedule (emergency) conferences where food & drink are served in the morning or afternoon, and require ALL employees to attend. Certainly forbearance would be respected, but idle chatter about the best place for baby back ribs during and after seating should be freely made. Perhaps the conference’s subject should be where to situate the planned on-premises kennel for staff who bring their pet dogs to work. (mudslimes hate dogs. they are just so jealous of them licking each others’ assholes.)
Cary says
We have had so many of them settling in our country and get special treatment that many of them act entitled wherever they go. They do not respect other people nor have courtesy towards others.
BareNakedIslam says
What country are you in, Cary?
Hartmut says
You know Ramadamadingdong has arrived when Muslim employees start racking up missed working hours. A happy time for each employer.

Meanwhile be sure and not say Merry Christmas during the holy week in December as that hurts the wee feeeelings of a certain gang of morons…No mention of Lent for Christians but lets not upset the followers of a Fascist Religious Cult as their followers as weaklings that cant think for themselves.
Az gal says
Another month of gluttony, especially prone to terrorism is upon us. That little piece was so full of sh*t- Eid is nothing like Christmas & the Slimes know it. And this crap about asking them questions- Muslums are living in a fantasy that we are all dying to know about & join their death cult. This thing about not even drinking water is a very bad idea. Definitely not divinely inspired. Just my 2 cents there.
Ghulam says
I have never worked a regular job but that’s pretty much it.
Ghulam says
Well my rules for the infidels of BNI are quite simple. Please avoid any posts with the mention of FOOD or RECIPES….that’s just going to make me very angry as I’ll be fasting the whole month. I am going to be in a pious state of mind and don’t want to lose it on anyone. Ye have been warned.
Continue bashing Islam and Muslims just like before. No problems there.
Allah u Akbar.
Derek Bayliss says
All go to work with pork food hang sausages your neck get a pet pig or a black dog with one white spot that terrifies mudslimes
Andrew+Blackadder says
FOOD, RECIPES, FOOD,RECIPES, MORE FOOD AND MORE RECIPES, AND YET EVEN MORE FOOD AND RECIPES…there ya go matey…

That’s NOT what we want you Moose Limbs to feel. We would rather you have a sense of impending doom. Yours.

You wouldn’t like Disneyland now, with its tranny worship.

Ugh….thanks for ruining it for me.

I didn’t ruin it, Disney did.

I was watching reruns of The Big Bang Theory the other day (don’t ask me why). The story is set in Pasadena, California.
One scene struck me as very odd: Sheldon Cooper, a lead character visits a book store to check out the children’s section.
Why would you do that unless you’re buying books for your young child. Sheldon isn’t a father.
These were the books in the children’s section (6-8 year old):
1) No more Mama Bear and Papa Bear. The new children’s books are about TWO Daddy bears raising the cub together. Here’s the kicker the cub’s not really sure of his gender.
2) Something about God no longer existing (a really advanced subject for a tiny tot).
In the same scene, Sheldon Cooper a 40-year old man-child is trying to befriend a 6-year old girl.
BareNakedIslam says
This isn’t new. Many years ago, there was an uproar over a book being introduced to elementary school age children as young as 6 or 7. It was called “Heather has two mommies” about a Lesbian family. Who knew it would lead to the sheer insanity of transgender drag queens teaching little children to dance like them right inside their schools.

The muzzies I know, Ramadandingdong is really about eating like a pig in the morning to get through to night where they consume huge Quantities of food to eliminate their hunger.

END of ARTICLE QUOTE
In other words, Muslim police officers should IGNORE violent crimes taking place in front of them because they need a Ramadan break, and Muslim firefighters need to take a Ramadan break whilst fires engulf buildings???
Huh?
sixlittlerabbits says
LOLROTF at this post with your comments. Muslimes have made whining a fine art. Isn’t Eid the “feast” where the blood of viciously slaughtered animals runs in the streets? What better way to end Ramadan?
BareNakedIslam says
YEs, it is. That’s when I put up my halal slaughter videos.

The info contained above definitely falls into the category of WGAS?!
BareNakedIslam says
What is WGAS?
Ramez says
“WGAS” is an acronym for “Who gives a shit?”
BareNakedIslam says
OK, thanks.

Similar, I believe, to WGAF.

Who Gives A S**t. Or, WGAF. Either works.
