A targeted employment initiative spearheaded by the Dubai Land Department has successfully generated more than 2,100 jobs for UAE nationals within the real estate sector over the last three and a half years.
Known as the ‘Real Estate Empowerment Programme’, the initiative originally debuted in 2023 with the goal of preparing and drawing Emirati professionals toward private market careers.
The framework combines career orientation, precision job matching, hands-on training, and continuous professional support to ensure long-term success.
Authorities noted that the structured approach has notably improved talent retention by providing clearer career progression paths within participating firms.
The rollout was achieved through a strategic partnership involving DLD, the Emirati Human Resources Development Council in Dubai, the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation, and the Nafis initiative.
DLD described the milestone as a vital step in reinforcing the participation of national talent within a cornerstone industry of the local economy.
This cooperative model successfully ties sector-specific recruitment drives to the wider national Emiratisation ecosystem and its associated government incentives.
Meanwhile, the broader market has shown robust expansion, with Dubai’s real estate sector growing 3.1 percent year-on-year in the first quarter of 2026.
Data released by the Dubai Media Office indicated that the industry contributed approximately Dh26 billion in gross value-added during the period.
