Document background
This Subcontractor Safety Policy is essential for organizations engaging subcontractors in the UAE, where strict safety regulations govern workplace operations. The document serves as a crucial risk management tool, ensuring compliance with UAE Federal Labor Law No. 8 of 1980, ministerial decisions, and emirate-specific requirements. It outlines mandatory safety procedures, establishes clear lines of responsibility, and provides detailed guidance on risk assessment, incident reporting, and emergency response. The policy is particularly vital given the UAE's emphasis on workplace safety and the severe penalties for non-compliance with safety regulations. It helps protect all parties involved in the project while maintaining alignment with local legal requirements and international best practices.
