Remote Work Guide for the Federal Government

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

The Federal Authority for Government Human Resources (FAHR), in cooperation with the Ministry of Cabinet Affairs and the Future, issued a guide for remote work in the federal entities, following the announcement of the UAE Government to implement remote work system for certain job categories in the Federal Government as of Sunday 15 March, in light of the precautionary measures to limit the spread of coronaVirus pandemic in the country.
