Go to question pageDubai attracts many foreign professionals due to its economic opportunities and high standard of living. I spoke to expats from various countries, and many highlighted the good working conditions, modern offices, and competitive salaries. Companies often provide additional benefits, such as health insurance and housing assistance. However, it's important to note that conditions can vary depending on the industry and the worker's qualifications. The government is implementing reforms to improve the rights and working conditions of foreign workers, especially in construction and services. I noticed that respect for labor and collaboration between different cultures make the working environment in Dubai unique.
