The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MoHRE) marked the New Year with a series of celebratory events aimed at fostering happiness and engagement among workers across the UAE.
Under the theme ‘Happy Workers, Thriving Business,’ the celebrations took place at 18 locations nationwide, including labour accommodations managed by key organisations such as Al Eskan Al Jamae, Emirates Global Aluminum, and Tasameem Workers City.
The festivities featured a variety of sporting and entertainment activities, competitions, and valuable prizes, including a car raffle, drawing enthusiastic participation from workers. Mohsin Ali Al Nassi, Assistant Under-Secretary for Inspection and Compliance at MoHRE, emphasised the importance of such initiatives in enhancing the welfare and quality of life of the UAE’s workforce.
“These events reflect our vision to honour workers and recognise their contributions to the nation’s sustainable development journey,”
he stated, lauding the collaboration between MoHRE and its public and private sector partners.
Dalal Al Shehhi, Acting Assistant Undersecretary for Labour Protection at MoHRE, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the UAE’s commitment to a humanitarian approach.
“These events enrich workers’ lives and align with the Ministry’s strategy to foster innovation, boost productivity, and positively impact the labour market,”
she remarked.
The celebrations were organised in collaboration with a wide range of stakeholders, including the Ministry of Interior, Dubai and Abu Dhabi Police, Abu Dhabi Ports Group, and the Roads and Transport Authority in Dubai. They were further supported by sponsors such as Al Majma Insurance and Aldar Properties, as well as strategic partners including the UAE Food Bank and Al Ihsan Charity Association.
This initiative underscores the UAE’s ongoing efforts to create a thriving and inclusive labour environment, reinforcing the integral role of workers in the nation’s progress.
