The Postal Sector Regulatory Committee Advances
Emiratisation Awareness Among Postal and CEP Companies

Dubai, 17 December 2024: The Postal Sector Regulatory Committee
conducted a workshop titled ‘Emiratisation in the Postal and Courier, Express
and Parcels (CEP) Sector’, in partnership with the Ministry of Human
Resources and Emiratisation, the Emirati Talent Competitiveness Council
(Nafis) and the Emirates Human Resources Development Council.

These workshops aim to provide businesses in the industry with regular
updates on the latest rules and developments, ensuring they remain informed
to better practice their operations and comply with regulations. The workshop
specifically focused at raising awareness among postal and CEP companies
about the regulations that govern Emiratisation rates in the private sector. The
key goal was to provide further guidance to help companies develop strategies
for achieving Emiratisation targets while leveraging the support offered by
‘Nafis’.

During the session, representatives from the participating partner entities
discussed their collaborative efforts to strengthen Emiratisation in the private
sector through specialised initiatives focused on training and developing Emirati
talent. They also emphasized the importance of expanding communication
channels between relevant entities and companies looking to identify Emirati
talents that meet particular employment requirements. The workshop further
shed light on precise methods for calculating Emiratisation rates and provided
clarity on the laws and regulations that companies must comply with.

Mohamed Khalid Bin Sulaiman, Chief Regulatory and Licensing Officer at
the Regulatory and Licensing Sector, said: “The initiative underscores the
commitment of the Postal Sector Regulatory Committee to contribute towards
achieving the UAE’s strategic vision, which aims at increasing job prospects for
Emiratis through encouraging private businesses to hire Emirati talents and use
their skills and abilities to boost the nation’s economic growth. We reaffirm our
dedication towards ensuring companies in the postal and CEP sector are
informed about legislative changes and adhere to best practices, fostering a
productive and compliant working environment.”

The Postal Sector Regulatory Committee remains committed to organizing
similar workshops to keep the industry informed and aligned with national
objectives, supporting sustainable growth and development across the sector.
