Early, late, night shifts — the 9-hour rule under control.

Klacks schedules front of house, kitchen, and housekeeping under Saudi labour law — including the 9-hour normal working time for the hospitality sector (Ministerial Decision 2836/1/1427), the 11-hour daily attendance cap (Art. 101), and the night window from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. (MD 18632/1441).

Full house, thin staffing

schedule

Making use of the 9-hour normal working time

The hospitality sector may schedule 9 instead of 8 hours of normal working time (MD 2836/1/1427) — while Art. 101 caps daily attendance at 11 hours. Split shifts thus remain effectively tightly constrained.

Ramadan planning

During Ramadan, weekly working time for Muslim employees drops to 36 hours (Art. 98) — while Iftar and Suhoor business often means peak season. Reconciling both is the real art of scheduling.

nights_stay

Night work with special rules

The night window runs from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. (MD 18632/1441) — and night workers need at least 12 hours of rest. Anyone closing late can't open early again — at least not with the same staff.

From the early shift to the night shift — it all works together.

schedule

9-hour rule & 11-hour cap planned cleanly

The 9-hour normal working time and the 11-hour attendance cap (Art. 101) can be stored as rules — every breach is flagged immediately.

event_repeat

Ramadan season planned

Klacks factors the reduced 36-hour weekly budget during Ramadan (Art. 98) into planning — shift lengths and staffing adjust without quietly generating overtime.

event_available

Weekly rest secured

A maximum of 6 consecutive working days, followed by 24 hours of weekly rest (Art. 104/105): Klacks keeps count and warns before the weekly rest is violated.

Qualifications & certifications

Shifts are only filled by staff with the right qualification — Klacks warns about expiring certifications before they become a problem.
