The Civil Service Commission (CSC) in Kuwait has announced that government offices will return to their regular morning and evening working hours from Tuesday, 1 September 2026, following the end of the summer working-hours schedule.
The commission said the resumption of normal working hours would be carried out in line with regulations governing official working hours in government institutions.
The decision follows Circular No. 11 of 2026, which set out working hours for government agencies during the summer season.
The circular was issued in implementation of the Civil Service Council’s decision adopted at its eighth meeting of 2026, held on 14 May.
Under Clause 7 of the decision, the summer working-hours system was in effect from 1 June to 31 August.
With the summer schedule ending, government agencies will revert to the established morning and evening working-hours system starting September 1.
