Employment and Employability in Abu Dhabi
I have been working as an adviser to Deloitte and the
Tawteen Council on how to build the necessary
infrastructure to create long term sustainable
employment for the people of Abu Dhabi This
imaginative programme is a key element of the
strategy outlined in Abu Dhabi Vision 2030 which
seeks “to achieve economic diversification and to
build a thriving knowledge economy.... creating a
huge opportunity for sustainable Emiritization to
deliver social inclusion and economic security.”
This is a fascinating project encompassing the
development of institutions and organisations for
both supply and demand in the Abu Dhabi job market.
We are looking at how employers define their current
and future skills needs and how jobseekers can meet
this demand. A strong local team from both Deloitte
and Tawteen are putting huge energy and imagination
into how to create a thriving and productive job
market to meet the 2030 Vision for the
Emirate.
