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 community, designing tailored training
programs, and hosting specialised workshops to enhance their readiness for the job market. In addition,
