Dubai, February 28, 2025
The Dubai Government Human Resources Department (DGHR)
successfully organised the inaugural edition of the ‘Human
Resources Forum for 2025,’ under the theme ‘Big Data and Its
Impact on Human Resources’. The forum highlighted the
transformative role of big data in driving strategic decision-making
within the human resources sector, reinforcing Dubai’s
commitment to digital excellence.

Held virtually through Microsoft Teams, the forum convened an
esteemed panel of experts and specialists from various
government sectors. The initiative aligns with Dubai’s broader
Digital Strategy, which seeks to digitise all aspects of life in the city,
establish a robust digital ecosystem, and foster a digitally
empowered society. Additionally, the strategy is focused on
boosting the digital economy, enhancing Digital Wellbeing by 90
per cent, and achieving top rankings in the United Nations’ Local
Online Service Index while upskilling over 50,000 professionals
with advanced digital qualifications.
The forum, designed for department directors, section heads, and
HR professionals within the Dubai government, explored the vital
role of big data in improving strategic decision-making within the
HR sector, enhancing institutional performance, and fostering
innovation.

H.E. Abdulla Ali Bin Zayed Al Falasi, Director General of
DGHR, emphasised the latest advancements in big data and its
far-reaching impact across various sectors. H.E. explained that big
data is a driving force behind technological progress, enabling the
analysis of vast amounts of information and extracting actionable
insights that contribute to informed decision-making.
Furthermore, H.E. highlighted the critical role of data science in
enhancing the efficiency of institutional decisions, emphasising the
importance of advanced analytics in making precise and effective
decisions, anticipating future trends, and mitigating risks.
H.E. Al Falasi also highlighted that leveraging data has become
integral to boosting institutional performance, particularly in human
resources. By utilising data, organisations can enhance talent
management strategies, increase productivity, improve employee
experience, and innovate solutions that promote growth in line with
digital transformation objectives.
The forum featured presentations from a panel of experts. Dr. Sara
AlShaya, Director of the Data and Statistics Department at
Emirates Health Services (EHS), delivered a presentation titled
‘Vital Data in the Healthcare Sector’, and Dr. Jassim Al Ali,
Assistant Professor at the Mohammed Bin Rashid School of
Government, explored the impact of big data on human resources.

Participants engaged in dynamic discussions and exchanged
insights on enhancing data-driven decision-making, highlighting
the importance of staying ahead of future trends in process
digitisation and integrating artificial intelligence in organisational
operations. By embracing these approaches, the forum
emphasised the significance of leveraging big data to foster a
culture of agility and innovation in recruitment while contributing to
the development of the work environment and enhancing overall
team performance.
