UAE to lift noon work ban tomorrow
Tomorrow marks the end of the heat stress protection policy for workers implemented by the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation in the UAE for the 22nd consecutive year. This policy included a ban on working outdoors under the sun from 12:30 PM to 3:00 PM during the summer months, aimed at reducing the risks of heat stress and safeguarding workers’ health. The policy has contributed to enhancing occupational safety standards and decreasing exposure to high temperatures, as private sector establishments committed to organizing working hours and providing a safe working environment during the ban period. After the ban ends, work at outdoor sites resumes its normal schedule while continuing to adhere to safety regulations, reflecting the UAE's ongoing preventive approach to protect workers' safety and health during the summer conditions.
