UAE government mandates remote work for all employees amid unstable weather

The Council of Ministers has issued a directive instructing all government employees in the UAE to work remotely on Tuesday, April 16, due to unstable weather conditions sweeping across the nation.

This decision aims to ensure the safety and well-being of employees amidst the adverse weather conditions. However, certain federal employees whose duties necessitate their physical presence at the workplace have been exempted, with careful consideration given to the ongoing weather challenges.

While government employees transition to remote work, private sector companies have been urged to implement precautionary measures, especially in outdoor work environments where suspending operations may prove challenging.
