Dubai govt. strengthens protection for maids in Dubai

It was the Sheikh Zayed’s mission to make sure that everyone who came to the Emirates was treated equally, in his own words, "a special soul". Workers of all backgrounds and faiths could come to the Emirates and be part of its growth as well as contribute towards it. Among the most visible workforce here in Dubai, are the maids in Dubai.

About Maids in Dubai

Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed, head of the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department and the Minister of Presidential Affairs, has established prosecutors and special judicial departments. This is part of the federal labour law that was issued by Sheikh Khalifa in September.

The law will apply to maids in Dubai, nannies, gardeners, and others. It sets out that they will receive at least 12 hours of off-duty per day, including 8 consecutive ones, and 30 days of paid leave. Those who are going to oppress these rights of maids in Dubai, employers or recruiters, will be fined maximum up to 100,000 dirhams.

What had happened in Kuwait was tragic, and all protection must be ensured so that such an incident is never repeated.

The UAE Government has shown considerable support to help maids in Dubai. The Dubai labour court launched something called, the Ouin Initiative, which offers free legal advice for those who are disadvantaged. The Abu Dhabi justice department also launched attested scheme to pay the legal fees of the low-income individuals.

It is the duty of those who occupy the upper strata of Dubai, to help those who are in the lower margins. This is the legacy of the equality and empathy of Sheikh Zayed.
