Kapanlagi.com - As the holy month of Ramadan 2025 approaches, the Indonesian government has taken an important step by issuing Presidential Regulation Number 21 of 2023, which regulates the adjustment of working hours for Civil Servants (ASN). This step is taken to provide flexibility for ASN in performing fasting without sacrificing their work productivity.

So, what are the details of this regulation and how does it impact ASN during this Ramadan? This regulation includes a reduction in weekly working hours for ASN, as well as adjustments to start times and daily break durations. In addition, there are also special provisions for agencies that implement different working systems.

With this adjustment, it is hoped that ASN can more easily maintain a balance between their official duties and worship during the fasting month. To understand more about the working hour adjustments for ASN during Ramadan 2025, here are the complete details that need to be known.

1. Adjustment of Working and Break Times

The Indonesian government has established an adjustment to working hours for State Civil Apparatus (ASN) through Presidential Regulation Number 21 of 2023. During Ramadan, ASN working hours start at 08:00 local time, different from regular days which start at 07:30. The break time has also been adjusted, which is 30 minutes from Monday to Thursday, and 60 minutes on Friday.

• Working hours during Ramadan: 08:00 local time.
• Break time:

Monday – Thursday: 30 minutes.

Friday: 60 minutes.

This adjustment aims to provide flexibility for ASN in adjusting their work rhythm while observing fasting. Thus, it is hoped that ASN can maintain a balance between official duties and religious needs during Ramadan.

However, it should be noted that these working hour provisions do not apply to the TNI, Polri, Indonesian representatives abroad, and ASN assigned to security agencies. They have a different working system and must follow the regulations set by their respective agencies.

2. Exceptions for Certain Agencies

The regulations regarding adjustments to working hours during Ramadan do not apply to TNI soldiers, police members, and ASN employees working in the TNI, police, and Indonesian representatives abroad. This is due to the unique characteristics of their duties and responsibilities, which require special working hour arrangements.

Thus, the adjustment of working hours during Ramadan only applies to ASN in central and regional government agencies that do not fall into those categories.

"This Presidential Regulation governs the provisions regarding working days and working hours for government agencies and ASN employees applicable to central and regional agencies. The working days for government agencies are 5 (five) working days in 1 (one) week, from Monday to Friday. The working hours for government agencies and ASN employees amount to 37 (thirty-seven) hours and 30 (thirty) minutes in 1 (one) week, excluding break times. The working hours for government agencies and ASN employees during Ramadan are 32 (thirty-two) hours and 30 (thirty) minutes in 1 (one) week, excluding break times," states the regulation of Presidential Regulation Number 21 of 2023, which this year serves as a reference, referring to peraturan.bpk.go.id.

3. Working Hours Adjustment and Eid al-Fitr Holiday Rules 2025

Institutions that implement a work system outside of five days a week are required to adjust their working hours in accordance with the provisions of Presidential Regulation 21/2023, in order to ensure that all State Civil Apparatus (ASN) can carry out their duties and worship in balance during the holy month of Ramadan.

Speaking of Ramadan, we cannot forget the joyful moment of Eid al-Fitr scheduled for March 31, 2025, with the collective leave planned for April 2, 3, 4, and 7.
