Sharjah: Sharjah Police has unveiled a new official uniform for airport police personnel as part of ongoing efforts to enhance operational readiness, improve workplace conditions and strengthen the quality of security services provided to travellers.

The new uniform was launched by Lieutenant General Abdullah Mubarak bin Amer, Commander-in-Chief of Sharjah Police, during an inspection visit to the Ports and Airports Department. He was accompanied by Ali Salem Al Midfa, Chairman of the Sharjah Airport Authority, along with senior police officials including Major General Dr Ali Ahmed Bualzoud, Director-General of the General Department of Resources and Support Services; Major General Omar Ahmed Bualzoud, Director-General of the General Department of Criminal Security and Ports; and Brigadier Matar bin Dikhain, Director of the Ports and Airports Department.

During the tour, bin Amer reviewed the department’s operational readiness and examined the systems and procedures used to deliver security services to passengers travelling through Sharjah’s air gateways.

He also met with employees working in the department, listening to their views, suggestions and development proposals. The discussions focused on ways to further improve the work environment, boost institutional efficiency and support continuous development across various operational areas.

Officials said the inspection reflects Sharjah Police’s commitment to strengthening the readiness of its security system while enhancing the overall travel experience for passengers. The initiative aligns with the emirate’s position as a growing international destination for travel and tourism.
