Ramadan starts on Friday evening. In case you aren't aware, it can be physically very challenging. Fasting starts 1.5 hours before sunrise and lasts till sunset; even a small sip of water is off limits.
If you work in HR or you manage people, let your Muslim employees/direct reports know you support them by asking about it now. Make it clear you know Ramadan is starting soon. Ask if you can do anything to support them, for example offering adjusted working hours. Don't wait for them to ask, because they probably won't.
It's easier to say "I don't need this" to something that is offered to you, than to ask for something you need when you might be one of the few people who needs it.
