The Future of Domestic Work in the GCC

Questions:

  • Where is the GCC from these global transformations?
  • What are implications for the management of human resources (DW)?

Research aims to:

  • Examine the size and composition of the DW sector at national and GCC levels.
  • Examine the demand in the  DW sector: determinants and structure.
  • Analyze the current state of affairs in employer-domestic worker matching (examples from Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the pre Tadbeer Center phase)   
  • Reflect on human resource decisions concerning the domestic work sector in the countries of the GCC.
