The ‘Guide of Health, Occupational Safety and Environment in the
Government of Dubai’ was created by the Department under ‘The
Government of Dubai Human Resources Management Law No. 8 of
2018,’ and following the Military Human Resources Legislation in the
Emirate of Dubai. It was prepared with the objective of cultivating a
culture for effectively managing risks of occupational health, safety,
and environment.

Additionally, it also aims to encourage departments to establish a safe
and healthy working environment that complies with the pertinent

conditions and standards to guarantee that relevant risks are ready to
be addressed or reduced. DGHR is responsible for implementing this
manual and providing the resources required for achieving the
objectives of various significant programs and initiatives.
