Fujairah Crown Prince Emphasises Legislative Development To Boost Government Performance

The Government of Fujairah is preparing to apply Human Resources Law No. 2 of 2025, after H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi underlined the role of modern legislation in raising government performance, strengthening institutional efficiency, and supporting long-term sustainability goals.

The new Human Resources Law is designed as a unified reference for all government entities in the emirate, setting clear rules for employment, workplace practices, and administrative processes, with the intention of improving job performance, protecting rights, and creating a more supportive working environment.

Key provisions within Human Resources Law No. 2 of 2025 address organisational and administrative structures, expand governance rules, and organise flexible work patterns, while also revising the leave system and introducing detailed executive regulations and transparent salary scales to simplify procedures and clarify responsibilities across Fujairah’s government sector.

One of the most notable changes in Human Resources Law No. 2 of 2025 is the extension of maternity leave from 60 days to 90 days, aligning leave benefits with wider social priorities and offering greater support to employees during family-related periods, alongside other benefits linked to structured salary frameworks.

During a meeting at the office of the Crown Prince of Fujairah, Mohammed Khalifa Al Zeyoudi, Director of Human Resources at the Government of Fujairah, presented an explanatory briefing on Human Resources Law No. 2 of 2025 and outlined how the department plans to manage its implementation across government entities.

H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi used the discussion on Human Resources Law No. 2 of 2025 to stress the importance of continuously improving legislation and regulatory frameworks that support government performance, enhance institutional efficiency, improve the working environment, and help achieve high levels of productivity and sustainability.

The Crown Prince of Fujairah also referred to the continued focus of H.H. Sheikh Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Fujairah, on vital sectors in the emirate, noting support for initiatives linked with Human Resources Law No. 2 of 2025 that seek better institutional development and service quality, while Dr. Ahmed Hamdan Al Zeyoudi attended the meeting.

Mohammed Khalifa Al Zeyoudi expressed appreciation to the Crown Prince of Fujairah for close follow-up on Human Resources Law No. 2 of 2025, and confirmed that the Human Resources Department is committed to applying the law in a way that realises its objectives and continues to improve the overall government working environment in Fujairah.
