  On the occasion of International Workers' Day,
• 0:02
  observed on 1st May each year, I extend my sincere
• 0:06
  appreciation and gratitude to all workers whose
• 0:10
  dedication, integrity and sincere efforts contribute
• 0:14
  to the development and prosperity of the UAE
• 0:17
  and realising the vision of His Highness Sheikh
• 0:19
  Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President
• 0:22
  and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
• 0:26
  to make Dubai the smartest and happiest city
• 0:29
  in the world. The celebration of International
• 0:32
  Workers' Day in the UAE reflects the nation's
• 0:35
  recognition of the vital role workers play in
• 0:38
  driving integrated economic development. The
• 0:41
  UAE marks this occasion to reaffirm its commitment
• 0:44
  to workers and to ensuring a decent standard
• 0:47
  of living for them and their families, recognising
• 0:50
  them as a fundamental pillar of the development
• 0:53
  and progress witnessed across the country. Guided
• 0:57
  by these values, we at Dubai Electricity and
• 1:00
  Water Authority firmly believe that every achievement
• 1:03
  in power generation and water desalination, increasing
• 1:06
  the share of renewable and clean energy, and
• 1:09
  expanding transmission and distribution networks
• 1:11
  is the result of the dedication of our workforce
• 1:14
  and their commitment to the highest standards
• 1:16
  of quality and safety, said His Excellency Saeed
• 1:20
  Mohammed Al -Taya, MD and CEO of Diwa. On this
• 1:24
  occasion, I would also like to reaffirm that
• 1:27
  the safety and well -being of our employees remain
• 1:29
  a top priority in Dubai Electricity and Water
• 1:32
  Authority's policies. We continuously work to
• 1:35
  foster a safe, resilient and positive work environment
• 1:38
  that safeguards employees' rights, recognises
• 1:41
  their contributions and enhances their well -being
• 1:44
  and quality of life. This commitment also extends
• 1:47
  to all workers serving Dubai Electricity and
• 1:50
  Water Authority through our contractors and suppliers.
• 1:53
  as we ensure the inclusion of binding clauses
• 1:55
  that guarantee their safety and appropriate living
• 1:58
  conditions. His Excellency Saeed Mohammed Al
