Ras Al Khaimah. The primary goal of the forum is to discuss best practices in occupational well-being,
fostering the exchange of experiences and experiments to improve the well-being of employees within the

seeking to establish the groundwork for occupational well-being and leverage innovative technologies to
cultivate a flexible work environment tailored to the demands of future jobs, with the goal of positively
impacting employee happiness.”

H.E. added: “The Forum serves as an ideal platform for observation and learning from best practices,
