In his capacity as the Chairman of The Executive Council of Dubai, Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence, issued Executive Council Resolution No. (67) of 2025 on the Workforce Productivity Measurement System.

The system will be implemented across government entities in phases as determined by the Dubai Government Human Resources Department (DGHR).

According to the Resolution, the system will be implemented in phases.

In the first phase, productivity will be measured using recognised standards by comparing services delivered against workforce size, total salaries, actual working hours, and other relevant data.

The results will then be analysed, followed by the development of initiatives to improve efficiency and services.

The final phase will focus on evaluating the system. A procedural guide will set out the details and responsibilities for each phase.

The Resolution assigns the General Secretariat of The Executive Council of Dubai the responsibility for identifying, classifying, and updating government services, coordinating with relevant entities including the Department of Finance, Dubai Digital Authority, and DGHR, providing technical support, and approving services, their data, and performance indicators.
