UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (MoHRE) has launched the UAE Labor Market Observatory in order to boost labour market competitiveness.

According to the statement, it is designed to provide periodic data and information in both Arabic and English on various competitiveness indicators of the UAE labor market, outputs of the policies set to regulate it, and information about innovative services, programs, and initiatives, along with other subjects relevant to the labor market.

Ms. Shayma Al Awadhi, MoHRE’s Assistant Undersecretary for Communication and International Relations, said that, “The UAE Labor Market Observatory was launched in line with the Ministry’s commitment to transparency with customers; it allows for easy access to data and information about the realities of the UAE labor market and is continuously updated to support research, enable benchmarking and comparison, and track the growth achieved in various sectors and fields.”

Mr. Al Awadhi added that the Observatory supports the Ministry’s strategic direction to strengthen electronic and digital services, promote the sharing of statistical data, and offer a reliable source of labor market data and information to media outlets, international organizations, and other stakeholders with a vested interest in labor markets, which can be referred to and consulted in decision-making.

For his part, Mr. Ayyoub Al Marzouqi, Acting Assistant Undersecretary for Policy and Strategic Affairs at MoHRE, stated that the website was designed with a modern, clear, and attractive interface to facilitate navigation and browsing, offering quick and direct access to regularly updated information and data, and serving as a key reference that presents outcomes of all of the Ministry’s research projects and studies.

“This is the first edition of the Labor Market Observatory, and it will be continuously updated with additional and detailed data in the future, according to stakeholders’ needs, and in line with the UAE’s data sharing policies,” Mr. Al Marzouqi noted.

The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization is organizing a workshop this week to introduce the Labor Market Observatory, which will be attended by various partners and media members. The workshop will allow attendees to share their observations, proposals for development, and their needs in terms of statistical data to maximize their benefit from the platform.
