Earlier, employees from the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation, along with its partners, joined workers in performing the Eid prayers at the event sites across the country, exchanging greetings with them on this joyous occasion.

In another post, the ministry said arrangements for workers to offer Eid prayers were made closer to their accommodation clusters.

“The celebratory activities form part of the sustainable strategy that the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation has established in collaboration with its partners, which aims to include workers in all national celebrations, events, and holidays in the UAE, in an effort to enhance their social integration. This, in turn, aligns with the Ministry’s vision to ensure workers’ happiness, quality of life, and wellbeing, while also shedding light on the vital role they play in the country’s sustainable development,” the ministry added.
