RTA in the survey also asks private sector employees for suggestions on alternative work options, including compressed or reduced working days and hours

In the midst of ongoing discussions about flexible and remote work arrangements in Middle Eastern workplaces, the Road and Transport Authority (RTA) of Dubai has initiated a feedback survey aimed at tackling traffic congestion issues in the city.

In this survey, the RTA invites private sector employees to share their insights into traffic patterns, particularly focusing on how flexible work hours and remote working arrangements can affect congestion. The RTA stated: “The Roads & Transport Authority (RTA), in cooperation with other relevant entities in the Emirate of Dubai, is conducting a study to understand the current situation in the private sector regarding flexible work hours and remote working. This is part of our efforts to manage traffic flow and reduce congestion, particularly during rush hours.”

The RTA has assured that all collected data will remain confidential and will only be used for research purposes. To encourage participation, they are offering prizes, although the details are not yet disclosed.

In the guidelines section, the RTA clarified the definitions of flexible work hours and remote work to prevent any confusion. The participants need to provide their details including, number of working days per week, working hours per day, and whether their organisation offers remote work options. They are also encouraged to share suggestions for alternative work arrangements and policies, including compressed or four-day workweeks and extended weekends, that their companies could implement.

The RTA aims to expand the use of flexible work hours and remote working practices across the private sector to improve traffic conditions and support carbon emission reduction goals.
