UAE’s Arabtec raises 36,000 labourer wages by 20% - Construction - ArabianBusiness.com:
"Arabtec, the UAE’s largest listed construction firm, has raised the salaries of all 36,000 of its workers in the Gulf state by 20 percent following large-scale strikes earlier this year.
In a statement on the country’s state news agency, Arabtec said that move was part of an effort to provide an “exemplary work environment to workers”.
Labourers at Arabtec are currently paid between $160 to $190 per month, according to sources.
In May, thousands of workers employed by Dubai-based Arabtec stayed away from work for four days demanding higher wages and better working conditions in a rare example of industrial action in the UAE, where workers’ unions are illegal."
