Various vital sectors exempted from the initial restrictions on movement are already following these measures. Other sectors that have resumed operations as part of the gradual reopening of economic activities are also strictly following preventive steps.

Dubai’s highly efficient technology infrastructure has enabled the city to tide over challenges arising from the pandemic. It has also set an example for the world in managing crises and finding innovative solutions for supporting the economy and protecting the community, His Highness added.
The Crown Prince stressed that all government entities in Dubai must be fully committed to enforcing precautionary measures to protect the wellbeing of employees and customers. The leadership places the highest priority on the health and safety of the community, His Highness said.
His Excellency Abdullah Ali bin Zayed Al Falasi, Director General of the Dubai Government Human Resources Department, said the decision allows some employees to continue working remotely from home.
These include the elderly, employees with underlying health and chronic conditions, people of determination, pregnant women and those with compromised immunity.
HE Al Falasi stressed on the importance of encouraging customers to use smart solutions to obtain government services, which help ensure both employees and customers are protected.
The Dubai Government Human Resources Department will issue a circular at a later date to all Dubai government entities outlining details of the measures related to resumption of full operations at the office.
