Emiratisation is here to stay
)
We live in a homeland that is always ready to embrace the challenges of the future in its march of progress. Key to this continued economic growth has been a concerted policy of diversification. The UAE’s economy is developing across broad sectors, be that trade, tourism, commerce, technology, health sciences, financial services, aviation or indeed manufacturing, natural resources and petrochemicals.
Moving forward, it’s essential that this diversification continues to deliver the results obtained so far — and key to this growth now is a policy of Emiratisation. The leadership of the UAE has long identified and promoted the concept of Emiratisation as an effective method of ensuring employment opportunities, career satisfaction, maintaining growth and building on the factors that ensure prosperity for all.
Certainly there are challenges when it comes to delivering Emiratisation and changing long-standing employment practices: ensure that every workplace and business provides meaningful opportunities to harness the talent of UAE nationals. These challenges are clear but the UAE leadership and government are determined that it will be effective and provide the opportunities for continued growth for all.
