EMIRATIZATION
Answer 1
Emiratisation is a government dynamism by the United Arab Emirates to their people for
them employment in public or private sector. It is an effective manner of employing more people
by giving training and employment.
Answer 2
Private sector organization under the Emiratisation process MoHRE is the establishment
of a monitory announcement and employment opportunity for the Emirati and that proposal
implemented over the health and safety process of Arab Emirates. This is a concern strategic
planning under the Ministerial Decree no. 711 that mainly concerned with the constructional and
industrial works that have assigned people over there under the contract of this law. 500 workers
are not getting their work permit unless health and safety officer has assigned them
(Alabdelkarim, Muftah & Hodgson, 2014). For the private sector company, they have to
authorize certain Emirati to continue this process as well. In Ministerial Decree no 710 almost
1000 people are joined for the data entry process and the minimum of two UAE citizens have to
be present in this list of workers. The law is a kind of stagnancy as without the assigned work
placement form the authority workers cannot do their work.
Answer 3
Emiratisation is a kind of influence that MoHRE has implemented for the better
development of Emirati people. This is a kind of privilege that private and public sector
companies have offered to their natives (Thompson & Wissink, 2016). This is a good step to
provide employment and mitigate the unemployment rate. As the main employment section is

health and safety so by that time people are quite aware of the process of safeties and they follow
this process in rest of their life.
Answer 4
Emiratisation is a form of affirmative action as the process educates UAE youth to
provide them enough knowledge in developmental change and give them proper training and
organization engagement to make the best fit for the organization (Goby et al. 2017).
Employees’ career development and corporate opportunities eventually depend on their progress
in life so this effective process of performance made that affirmative behavior in between the
UAE people.
Answer 5
Gulf experts of UAE are the ma concern for the private sector of UAE. Private sectors are
hiring those Emiratis under the Gulfanisation. This process brings more talent in UAE private
sectors and their production level also enhances the company reputation as well. There are
certain strong performers and executives in Gulf division, those can relate the business in an
effective way and enhance the external market of the company.
Answer 6
Emiratis will get a chance to earn more money as incentive in private sector organization.
The private sectors companies are now providing enough safety to their employees that is the
main reason behind Emiratis are getting interest to work on private sector companies. Private
sector companies have provided 30% more wages than the government that is another reason
Emiratis are interested to do private jobs (Aljanahi, 2017).

Answer 7
UAE government noticed that fact that people in private sector love to involve in the
public sector for certain reasons like more holidays, higher salary, short working duration and
great advantages.
Answer 8
Private jobs are offering more monetary value and provide strong and sustainable job
security so that employees can feel same protection as public sector has given to them. For the
appraisal of more incentive, people are getting involved with private sector rather than public
sector. This may encourage efficient Emiratis to join private companies.
Answer 9
Private sector companies under Emiratisation have to follow certain employment
programs like red carpet service, specialized consultation, complaint system and qualification
and training programs. All private sector companies not have this set up or time to roll on this
process as this is quite time consuming process. Thus, Emiratisation is not taken care by those
private sector companies.
