This initiative is part of our strategy to make employees happy and balances their professional and personal lives. Our staff are the cornerstone for organisational excellence at all levels. This initiative is also in line with our programmes during the Year of Tolerance, to consolidate the values of compassion, generosity, brotherhood, and convergence,” said HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA.
