- PRESS RELEASE
His Excellency Dr. Omar Bin Sulaiman, The Governor of the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), presented the Dubai Human Development Award (DHDA) to four organisations representing diverse economic sectors.
The Dubai Human Development Award category was presented to Sharjah Islamic Bank (finance), while DP World (semi-government), Amlak Finance PJSC (finance) and Total Abu Al Bukhoosh (industry) were awarded Dubai Human Development Appreciation Award for their contribution to national human development within their organisations.
The Dubai Human Development Award is part of a comprehensive initiative to enhance work opportunities for UAE nationals and further develop their skills and abilities.
It emphasises on the role of UAE nationals in shaping the future of the country and highlights the need for intensive training and guidance. The award has set the platform for implementing professional quality management systems within organizations, thereby facilitating the progress of all employees.
The award covers eight economic sectors: trading, construction, professional, services, tourism, finance, manufacturing and semi-government.
Applications are evaluated by a team of assessors who also conduct site visits and prepare detailed assessment reports highlighting the existing best practices and the areas for improvement in each company. The examiners evaluate applications on the basis of three criteria - commitment (20%), process (45%) and results (35%).
The DHDA recognises the long-term commitment of the private sector to the development of young nationals by offering them the chance to develop and build career paths.
