Strategic vision for Emirati empowerment
Abdulaziz Essa Al Falahi, General Supervisor of Employment Operations at EHRDC, emphasized the platform’s importance in shaping the UAE’s future workforce.
“The platform marks a major advancement in the mission to empower Emirati talent and broaden their career prospects. It integrates cutting-edge digital innovations with transparent governance mechanisms to offer promising opportunities for Emirati youth. This aligns with the UAE Centennial 2071 vision and the strategic goals of the Dubai Economic Agenda (D33),” Al Falahi said.
He further noted that the platform is more than a recruitment tool, describing it as a comprehensive strategic system that empowers Emiratis to contribute to critical sectors driving sustainable economic growth.
“Leveraging the latest AI technologies, this platform will serve as a vital bridge, connecting citizens with job and training opportunities in a fast and transparent manner. It reflects our leadership’s vision of investing in national capabilities and building an integrated system that enhances Emirati human capital,” Al Falahi added.
Strengthening partnerships and future growth
The initiative underscores EHRDC’s commitment to fostering collaboration between public and private sector stakeholders while harnessing digital innovation to support national workforce development.
It is expected to contribute significantly to the UAE’s wider Emiratisation strategy by improving employment outcomes, boosting competitiveness, and positioning Emirati professionals as drivers of the nation’s diversified and knowledge-driven economy.
