and skills to shape Dubai's future and ensure its long-term prosperity.

Integrated Ecosystem:

His Excellency Abdullah Ali Bin Zayed Al-Falasi, Director General of DGHR's
Department, emphasised the significance of this initiative, stating:“The formation
of the Higher Committee for the Protection of the Rights of People of
Determination, chaired by His Highness Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin
Rashid Al Maktoum, is a significant step towards empowering people of

determination-not only through employment opportunities but also through an
integrated ecosystem that begins with assessment and training, followed by
professional follow-up and development. Beyond simply providing jobs, we create
career paths based on competence, fairness, and passion. This strategic direction
reflects our commitment to shaping an inclusive work environment where every
member of society, including people of determination, has the opportunity to
define Dubai's future.”

Insights and Initiatives:

According to the report issued by DGHR, the number of people of determination

employed across government entities has reached 326, including 237 UAE
nationals. The report also includes an extensive breakdown by type of disability,
educational qualifications, and gender distribution, making it a valuable resource
for policymakers as they develop future strategies to support inclusive
employment initiatives.

Dubai Municipality, the Roads and Transport Authority, Dubai Police, Dubai
Academic Health Corporation, and the General Directorate of Identity and
Foreigners Affairs have topped the list of entities employing the highest number of
people of determination.

Through the implementation of broad strategic initiatives aimed at integrating
people of determination into the public sector workforce, DGHR has remained
committed to inclusive employment. These efforts have been carefully designed
to provide advanced vocational training aligned with their aspirations and
capabilities.

In addition to statistical reporting, DGHR's responsibilities also include evaluating
the professional competencies of job seekers from the people of determination
