systems, chilled water, and other conveniences to safeguard
the workers' health and comfort during the Midday Break.

Al Awar emphasized that the Midday Break has evolved into a
deeply rooted practice in the UAE's private sector, now in its
20th year, highlighting the significant compliance levels
achieved over time. He stated, 'The private sector is a key ally
for the government in bolstering the UAE's labor market
competitiveness and leadership.' He further noted the private
sector's adherence to labor regulations and their dedication to
supporting labor market initiatives and social responsibility.

The Ministry has also declared that it will provide 6,000 rest
stations for delivery workers across the UAE, along with an
interactive map to help workers find and use these stations
easily during the Midday Break. The Ministry encourages all
companies with outdoor operations to initiate similar measures
to protect their workers and invites the public to report any
non-compliance or violations of the Midday Break by
contacting MoHRE's call center at 600590000, or via its
website or mobile app.
