The Universidade Federal Santa Catarina (UFSC) will have special opening hours between 18 December 2023 and 23 February 2024. During this period, the working hours for faculty and staff will be from 7:30 am to 1:30 pm, as established by the Normative Ordinance no. 480/2023/GR, which implements summer time at the institution. The exception is 14 February 2024 (Ash Wednesday), when office hours will be from 2 pm to 6 pm.

This measure takes into account the principles of reasonableness, economy and efficiency, by which federal higher education institutions in Brazil establish special opening hours. The Normative Ordinance no. 480/2023/GR does not apply to university units providing essential services to the community, in which regular office hours will be kept.
