The Contractor Health and Safety Policy serves as a crucial governance document for organizations operating in the United Arab Emirates that engage contractors for various business operations. This policy is essential for ensuring compliance with UAE federal labor laws, including Federal Law No. 8 of 1980 and its amendments, as well as emirate-specific regulations such as OSHAD-SF and Dubai Municipality safety requirements. The document outlines comprehensive safety protocols, risk management procedures, and specific responsibilities for all parties involved in contractor operations. It becomes particularly important in high-risk industries where contractor safety management is critical for preventing workplace incidents and maintaining regulatory compliance. The policy should be implemented when organizations regularly engage contractors or commence new projects involving contractor work, and it requires regular reviews to ensure continued alignment with evolving UAE safety regulations.
