Through further liberal policy, the UAE’s market sees the creation of thousands of new jobs every year, they added.
“A free labour market based on supply and demand creates the optimal conditions, under which we are able to continue to welcome thousands of guest workers to the UAE every year, while simultaneously fostering sustainable economic growth,” the ministry said.
