The Senate has declared June 6 as a regular holiday to commemorate Eid'l Adha, also known as the Feast of Sacrifice.
This declaration aligns with Malacañang's Proclamation No. 911, recognizing the significance of the major Muslim celebration.
The Senate will observe shortened work hours from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM between June 2 and June 5, 2025.
However, staff assigned to plenary sessions and committee hearings will continue their duties as directed.
Personnel from the Office of the Sergeant-at-Arms and the Maintenance and General Services Bureau on shifting schedules are exempt from the shortened work hours.
The date for Eid'l Adha was determined based on the Hijrah Islamic Lunar Calendar, as recommended by the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos.
Eid'l Adha is a significant Islamic holiday celebrating Prophet Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son in obedience to Allah.
