In the Emirate of Dubai, the Municipality is currently leading the way in public safety with
programs like the Environmental Health Control Program and the Occupational Health and
Safety Control Program.

Along with an integrated program for health and safety awareness that includes action
plans and field campaigns that make use of multilingual social media presence, it also
includes a specialized division for Health and Safety Management in Labor Buildings, which
