Women Employee Empowerment in Public Sector in UAE

Employee empowerment is one of the key function to make employees to share their knowledge, advantages of decisions making and innovations/ideas to an organisation by providing employees the freedom what they require and It is a long run plan for an organization for durability.

Even though it is important to give employees empowerment there are pros and cons in employee empowerment. such as it is beneficiary for employee satisfaction and motivation, it increases the creativity and self-efficiency etc. In other hand, there are disadvantages by increasing the risk as employee become more ambiguous. Also, security wise it is a risk when this important information has to share with every employee to make them think out of the box and to be creative. But most of the organizations are willingly taking the risk or challenges by keeping the employees controlled with the code of conducts or labour contracts signed.

Most of the private organizations are currently in the trend of giving their employees freedom for decision making even in the lower level of employees.

Whereas public sectors in UAE were, way behind with their traditional approaches and methods of work design for their employees with the rooting setups. There was No innovation, no creativity, no strategies, no challenges involved in their day to day jobs. it is one of the main reasons behind these gender differences. Traditional approaches were mainly focused on the male employees’ empowerment and Presently most of the regions, private and public sectors are providing the freedom for their employees to work under knowledge sharing/strategic, discussion making environment without having any gender differences. as a result of that, it is very common to see women are increasingly performing, creative, innovative and holds a intensify managerial qualities in co-operating level (Daley & Naff, 1998).

Focusing on that, UAE government established “Gender Balance council” (Mariam & Serkal, 2015).as a result of that there are nine women ministers in the power and innovations, decision makings are known in internationally and domestically in the market.
