Labor investigations branch establishes under guidance of Sheikh Mansour in Abu Dhabi
Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, in his capacity as Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister, Chairman of the Presidential Court, and Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department, has established the Abu Dhabi Labour Prosecution. This new entity will focus on investigating and prosecuting claims related to labour and domestic workers in Abu Dhabi [1][2][3].
The Abu Dhabi Labour Prosecution is a dedicated judicial body, formed as part of the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department's strategy to develop and expand specialized prosecutions. Its primary goal is to ensure swift and efficient judicial procedures, uphold justice specifically in the labour sector, and protect the rights of workers while maintaining transparency and fairness [1][2][3].
The jurisdiction of the Abu Dhabi Labour Prosecution covers crimes related to labour relations under Federal Law No. 33 of 2021 and domestic workers under Federal Law No. 9 of 2022 within Abu Dhabi’s geographic scope [2][3]. The body is headed by a public prosecution official of at least chief prosecutor rank, supported by sufficient prosecution members and specialized staff [2][3].
The establishment of the Abu Dhabi Labour Prosecution is in line with the principles of transparency and justice, and it adheres to the highest standards of transparency and justice. The approach considers the nature of each field to support the emirate’s judiciary system [1][2][3][5].
The resolution aims to realize accurate and full justice in vital sectors, and it is a continuation of the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department's work. The initiative reflects Abu Dhabi’s commitment to strengthening workers' rights and improving legal recourse for labourers and domestic workers [5].
