\u201cOur partnership with the private sector and the awareness campaigns targeting business owners have succeeded in improving the level of compliance,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n
The Ministry revealed that the number of private sector companies adhering to labour accommodation standards and registered in the Labour Accommodation System had increased 1000% by the end of 2023, compared to February 2022, when Ministerial Decision No. 44 of 2022 Regarding Occupational Health and Safety and Labour Accommodation went into effect.<\/p>\n
The Ministry said the growth of companies\u2019 commitment to labour accommodation standards and reflects the growing awareness among employers about the importance of complying with relevant legislation that ensure workers\u2019 wellbeing, which, in turn, boosts their productivity.<\/p>\n
It also highlighted the \u201cimportant role that collaborative efforts among government entities have played in promoting compliance among companies, revealing that a total of 103 inspection campaigns were carried out in 2023 in collaboration with four federal and local government entities to ensure companies and owners of labour accommodation facilities adhere to the standards set by the Ministry to ensure health, safety, and suitable living conditions for workers, ultimately enhancing their quality of life and wellbeing.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Ministry explained that it has set up national databases for labour accommodations, in collaboration with relevant federal and local government entities, in a bid to streamline efforts and optimise monitoring of the working environment and standards of living for workers.<\/p>\n
MoHRE adopts a comprehensive system for labour accommodation standards, which serves to enhance the competitiveness and attractiveness of the UAE labour market, while promoting workers\u2019 wellbeing, implementing health and safety conditions, ensuring comfort for workers, and securing the country\u2019s global leadership in these areas.<\/p>\n
Legislation regarding labour accommodation standards outlines a comprehensive formula, covering standards that ensure workers\u2019 health, comfort and safety, most notably, ensuring the buildings and locations of these accommodations are suitable for living.<\/p>\n
The requirement also include displaying a sign with the company\u2019s name in both Arabic and English, and providing all amenities, including water, electricity, air conditioning systems, sufficient lighting, and designated areas for washing, cooking, and eating, in addition to ensuring the units are made from non-flammable building materials.<\/p>\n
