The UAE has no plans to make smaller companies hit Emiratisation targets, a top official has said.

As tens of thousands of Emiratis have been successfully placed in new private-sector jobs, Abdulrahman Al Awar, Minister of Human Resources and Emiratisation, said the policy will not change to include companies with fewer than 50 skilled employees.

“We will not change the government’s policy about Emiratisation in the private sector. There is no need for additional interventions,” Mr Al Awar said earlier this week.

Speaking at the ministry's offices in Dubai last week, he said the policy was successful in 2022 and believes it will have more success in the coming years.

“There will be no surprises [in Emiratisation policy] that will cause confusion in the job market,” he told The National.

As many as 1,600 Emiratis work for free zone companies, while officials expect more will secure private sector jobs and benefit from the support of the Nafis policy — which means “compete” or “to be competitive” in Arabic.

“There is a high demand for Emiratis in free zone companies. They started to participate in Nafis programme and we have about 1,600 Emiratis working in private companies at free zones,” said Ghannam Al Mazrouei, secretary general of the Emirati Talent Competitiveness Council."

He urged companies in free zones to use the Nafis programme to attract Emiratis to work in their companies despite being exempt from the Emiratisation policy.

Mr Al Mazrouei said the Nafis programme can reduce the financial burden on companies even for those not required to participate.

“Companies in free zone can benefit from Nafis packages," he said. "We have 32,556 Emiratis who benefitted from Nafis financial support in the private sector until last December. Nafis programme can reduce the financial burden on companies.”

Mr Al Mazrouei said a budget of Dh1.25 billion per year is provided to train, develop and recruit Emiratis in the private sector.

“We held 1,500 workshops and many virtual meetings with companies in the private sector to support the Emiratisation policy,” he said.

As of last week, there were 50,000 Emiratis working in the private sector nationwide, up from about 22,000 a year ago.

The federal government on Wednesday imposed Dh400 million ($108m) in fines on companies that had failed to ensure that 2 per cent of their workforce was Emirati by January 1.

There were 13,000 companies that met the criteria, employing more than 50 employees. Businesses based in free zones do not need to comply.

Emiratisation programme 'exceeds expectations' as thousands join private sector

Of the eligible companies, about 9,000 met the deadline while around 3,000 companies missed it. A further 1,000 partially achieved the target, labour officials said.

By January 1, 2024, these 13,000 employers must ensure that Emiratis comprise 4 per cent of their workforce — rising to 10 per cent by the end of 2026.

Under the programme, Emiratis are also entitled to salary top-ups.

An Emirati in a private company could receive up to Dh7,000 a month if they have a bachelor’s degree, Dh6,000 if they have a diploma and Dh5,000 if they completed high school or less.

The smuggler

Eldarir had arrived at JFK in January 2020 with three suitcases, containing goods he valued at $300, when he was directed to a search area.
Officers found 41 gold artefacts among the bags, including amulets from a funerary set which prepared the deceased for the afterlife.
Also found was a cartouche of a Ptolemaic king on a relief that was originally part of a royal building or temple. 
The largest single group of items found in Eldarir’s cases were 400 shabtis, or figurines.

Khouli conviction

Khouli smuggled items into the US by making false declarations to customs about the country of origin and value of the items.
According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, he provided “false provenances which stated that [two] Egyptian antiquities were part of a collection assembled by Khouli's father in Israel in the 1960s” when in fact “Khouli acquired the Egyptian antiquities from other dealers”.
He was sentenced to one year of probation, six months of home confinement and 200 hours of community service in 2012 after admitting buying and smuggling Egyptian antiquities, including coffins, funerary boats and limestone figures.

For sale

A number of other items said to come from the collection of Ezeldeen Taha Eldarir are currently or recently for sale.
Their provenance is described in near identical terms as the British Museum shabti: bought from Salahaddin Sirmali, "authenticated and appraised" by Hossen Rashed, then imported to the US in 1948.

Why does a queen bee feast only on royal jelly?

Some facts about bees:

The queen bee eats only royal jelly, an extraordinary food created by worker bees so she lives much longer

The life cycle of a worker bee is from 40-60 days

A queen bee lives for 3-5 years

This allows her to lay millions of eggs and allows the continuity of the bee colony

About 20,000 honey bees and one queen populate each hive

Honey is packed with vital vitamins, minerals, enzymes, water and anti-oxidants.

Apart from honey, five other products are royal jelly, the special food bees feed their queen 

Pollen is their protein source, a super food that is nutritious, rich in amino acids

Beewax is used to construct the combs. Due to its anti-fungal, anti-bacterial elements, it is used in skin treatments

Propolis, a resin-like material produced by bees is used to make hives. It has natural antibiotic qualities so works to sterilize hive,  protects from disease, keeps their home free from germs. Also used to treat sores, infection, warts

Bee venom is used by bees to protect themselves. Has anti-inflammatory properties, sometimes used to relieve conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, nerve and muscle pain

Honey, royal jelly, pollen have health enhancing qualities

The other three products are used for therapeutic purposes

Is beekeeping dangerous?

As long as you deal with bees gently, you will be safe, says Mohammed Al Najeh, who has worked with bees since he was a boy.

“The biggest mistake people make is they panic when they see a bee. They are small but smart creatures. If you move your hand quickly to hit the bees, this is an aggressive action and bees will defend themselves. They can sense the adrenalin in our body. But if we are calm, they are move away.”
