I fast for Ramadan every year. Here’s how companies can support employees like me

Be courteous: In addition to doing their jobs, your Muslim colleagues might be waking up an hour before sunrise and suffering from dehydration.
Every year, millions of Muslims take part in observing Ramadan: a spiritual month dedicated to cleansing the soul and spirit, hallmarked by the practice of fasting. This means that for 30 days, from sunrise to sunset, practitioners abstain from eating food and drinking water, only breaking their fast once the sun disappears in their respective geolocation—a time that shifts up or down depending on the season. https://www.fastcompany.com/91304552/muslim-colleagues-fasting-ramadan-how-companies-casupport-them
