Working conditions of labourers in the emirate has increasingly attracted the attention of the world’s media.
Property giant Nakheel is to build a state-of-the-art facility to accommodate 10,000 labourers working on its flagship Palm, World, and Waterfront developments. The lodgings will boast full amenities and recreation facilities, and will be completed by the end of the year.
"Our new facility at Dubai Waterfront will hopefully set the new standard for labour accommodation," Chris O'Donnell, Nakheel's CEO, told Arabian Business at the Arabian Travel Market in Dubai last week.
