UAE set to announce one million new jobs.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is likely to announce new jobs in the ongoing year of 2025, as its amicable policies have boosted the tourism sector and other economic activities.
The forecast has been made by the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) in its annual Economic Impact Report (EIR).
The report said the travel and tourism sector is expected to experience significant job growth compared to previous years, potentially adding over thousands of new positions this year alone as the UAE is now considered one of the world’s safest countries in terms of tourism and investment.
The UAE’s travel and tourism industry is forecast to support more than 925,000 jobs by the end of 2025, reports said.

Furthermore, the travel and tourism sector is expected to contribute AED 267.5 billion to the national economy in 2025, which would represent about 13% of the country’s GDP—a testament to the UAE’s growing status as a global tourism and investment hub.
