UAE labour laws place tremendous responsibility on employers. There is a constant effort to improve transparency of job terms and employment contracts and other aspects like recruitment, pay, housing and health.
The mid-day break rule which forbids labourers from working outdoors during the afternoons for about four summer months has been a very successful initiative.
The fact that the nation does not just formulate laws, but also takes steps to familiarise the recipients through awareness campaigns and ensures strict compliance is a notable point.
By ratifying nine conventions of the International Labour Organisation related to the rights of workers, the UAE has proved that it is among the best when it comes to not just protection and safety of its work force.
A friendly work environment that encourages communication without barriers helps forge a better work and social atmosphere.
When it comes to the welfare of its people, the country goes the extra mile to make necessary amendments or formulate new laws, making its people one of the happiest in the world.
