Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council, issued instructions granting a six-day paid exceptional holiday to Dubai government employees to allow them to visit Expo 2020 Dubai.

The six-day leave can be used during the exhibition period from October 1, 2021 to the end of March 2022 to enable government employees and their families to visit the Expo world under one roof.

Sheikh Hamdan’s directives reflect his keenness to give government staff the full opportunity to strike a balance between work and family, thereby ensuring their psychological and social stability and enabling them to increase productivity within a distinctive working environment conducive to excellence.

“Expo is a unique event during which the world meets in Dubai, bringing into the knowledge, cultures and creativity from all over the world. Our goal is to turn the expo’s theme “Connecting Minds, Creating the Future” into reality and tangible positive results,” Sheikh Hamdan said.

He added: “We want our team to stay up-to-date with the global advancement and be familiar with creative ideas from all corners of the globe.”
