These efforts reflect the authority's commitment to maintain the highest
standards of cleanliness in public services throughout the year, especially during
special occasions, holidays, and events hosted by Dubai.

Dubai Municipality’s workforce includes a team of 250 supervisory and control
staff to monitor and manage basic cleaning duties. They will oversee handling
both routine and emergency field reports as well as supervising a team of 2,250
sanitation engineers across Dubai.

The cleaning team will operate in a four-shift system, equipped with necessary
resources. In addition, a group of 650 cleaning engineers have been allocated
from the private sector to supervise cleaning operations in tourist, industrial, and
desert areas.

The municipality has assigned a field team comprising seven field supervisors
and 84 sanitation engineers to operate in a three-shift system every day, to clean
up public beaches. Earlier the civic body had announced that eight beaches will
be reserved only for families during the holiday period.

The beaches of Corniche Al Mamzar, Jumeirah 1, Jumeirah 2, Jumeirah 3, Umm
Suqeim 1, Umm Suqeim 2 and Jebel Ali will be open only to families. The
municipality will also allocate a 140-member safety and rescue team to enhance
beach safety during the period.

A team of nine inspectors and field supervisors will also ensure cleanliness of
investment areas and monitor the compliance of real estate development
companies with approved work systems.

For main roads spanning 2,300km, the municipality has designated an exclusive
team of 155 sanitation engineers and 10 supervisory and monitoring personnel to
ensure the cleanliness in four separate shifts.

The operational strategies of the municipality have been created to tackle all
emergencies, ensuring the hygiene of main roads and highways.

Necessary resources have also been allocated for waste collection and
transportation including prompt cleaning of accident sites along external roads
and highways.

A fleet of 759 automated vehicles – including light vehicles and heavy equipment
units- will complete different routine field operations and respond to emergencies.
During the Eid Al Adha holidays, the fleet will run 456 daily programmes on an
average, which include duties such as cleaning, addressing complaints, reporting
incidents and regular field inspections.
