March 7, 2024 9

The Municipality is conducting monitoring and inspection campaigns during Ramadan to
ensure adherence to standards and requirements.

Dubai Municipality has intensified its monitoring campaigns and inspection visits for food

safety and public health during the holy month of Ramadan. The campaigns include various
sectors such as Dubai markets, commercial centers, food establishments, food preparation
facilities, restaurants, hotels, hypermarkets, and supermarkets. Additionally, the campaigns

further extend to salons, beauty centers, smoking areas in cafes and restaurants, games, and
events areas, as well as labor cities and community markets across Dubai.

As part of its commitment to monitoring key sectors during the month of Ramadan, the

Municipality is actively overseeing compliance with safety, public health, and food safety
standards. This includes strict compliance with approved food safety standards by both events’

owners and employees across the entire food preparation process, storage, preparation, and
cooking, placing emphasis on maintaining the quality and validity of the materials used.

Sultan Al-Taher, Director of Food Safety Department at Dubai Municipality, underscored the

Municipality’s commitment to safeguarding the community against potential food-related risks.
The primary objective is to attain the highest standards of health and safety, aligning with the
Municipality’s overarching goals of establishing a sustainable food and health system. This

initiative aims to enhance standards in public health, improve overall quality of life, and
promote well-being within the community.
