The UAE has launched the second phase of the Work Bundle Platform for the foreign workers, to make the UAE a more attractive destination for workers.
What Exactly Was The Announcement?
The announcement made talks about the launch of the second phase of the Work Bundle Platform. The aim of this platform is to make the UAE a more attractive destination for the migrant workers. The Work Bundle scheme has already been functional in Dubai since some time, and will now be extended to the other parts of UAE too. It is expected to improve the living and working conditions for the workers.
What Does The Existing Phase Focus On?
The platform, already in existence in Dubai since March, focuses on providing various services to the new employees, such as issuing them their work permits, status adjustments and issuing visas, employment contracts, medical services, etc. The services also extend to renewal of work permits and their cancellation.
What Is New In The Second Phase?
The second phase of the Work Bundle is to be expanded to the whole of UAE. It will include all the emirates and aim to make working here easier. It will provide a bunch of integrated services to the people and streamline the process of employee and business management. It will help workers get access to work and will help them get their residences as well through a unified and well-managed platform.
What Are The Other Positives?
The platform will integrate the other platforms which are present for the same purpose and will centralize the process. It will also be tremendously useful to the business owners and the workers themselves. They would be able to access services very fast and efficiently too. It is also expected to simplify the overall process for the employees. The number of documents they need, and the total processing time will also fall to just 5 days owing to this initiative.
It is expected that not only will this make the economy of the UAE stronger but will also makes the lives of workers easier and make the UAE their preferred destination of work.
