3/23/26, 8:19 AM Dubai Launches New Grievance Committee Decree for Staff
Some grievances may be rejected if they fall outside the Committee’s jurisdiction, are submitted after deadlines,
have been previously decided by the Committee or courts, or if the employee lacks a legitimate interest.

All decisions of the Grievance Adjudication Committee are final and binding on government entities. While
administrative challenges are not allowed, employees can still appeal in courts.
The Decree also mandates strict confidentiality for all members, staff, and experts of the Committee, including after
leaving their positions. Any documents or evidence related to grievances must be returned to the Committee for
secure archiving or handling.
This decree cancels Executive Council Resolution No. (41) of 2015 and repeals any conflicting provisions in other
legislation. Existing regulations under the old resolution remain in effect until replaced, as long as they do not
conflict with the new Decree.
The decree is effective immediately upon its publication in the Official Gazette.
