The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (Mohre) in the UAE has urged private sector companies to maintain flexible remote work arrangements due to ongoing rainfall.

This directive, issued on February 13, emphasizes the importance of prioritizing employee safety during adverse weather conditions.

Companies are encouraged to implement necessary measures to ensure compliance with occupational health and safety requirements, particularly for any outdoor work that may be deemed essential to resume.

The statement underscores the responsibility of companies to safeguard the health and safety of workers during their commutes to and from outdoor work locations.

It’s worth noting that bad weather, including hailstorms, has led to property damage for many individuals, especially cars.

This proactive approach aims to mitigate risks and prioritize the well-being of employees during inclement weather.
