LABORS DAY SPECIAL

Travelling around Dubai in a Rolls-Royce, the last word for luxury, a visit to  Burj Al Arab, one of the largest luxury hotels in the world, and the tallest building, Burj Khalifa. The UAE-based World Star Holding is hosting a royal banquet for its workers on the occasion of World Labor Day.

Eight of their 7,000 employees have been selected for the "Employee Excellence" award for their outstanding service in recent years and provided them with two days of luxury living.  It was a dream come true for Mohammed Minto and Abdul Bashar, both Bangladeshis who took part in the construction of the Burj Khalifa.  From the 124th floor of the Burj Khalifa, they enjoyed a majestic view of Dubai with their hands folded.  Kuppuswamy, a native of Tamil Nadu, said that he enjoyed the interior of the Burj Al Arab, which he always had a glimpse, far away, like a dream while he travelled by bus to the construction sites several times. 

Imran Khan, a native of Pakistan, was overjoyed riding a Rolls Royce on Dubai roads, where he was a regular passenger of the  Labor bus.  Ashok Kumar and Rambhilash Chauhan, both from Uttar Pradesh, had tears rolling down when they were talking about those happy moments, that they thought they would never experience in their lives.

“The whole infrastructure of the country that we enjoy today is a reward for the sweat these workers had shed, and don't know how to thank them for this.  This is just a humble way to show them our gratitude and we have prepared a big surprise on this day of International Labor, ”said Nishad Hussain, Chairman, World Star Holding.  The World star made headlines when they installed free Wi-Fi and television screens on labour buses and they have many more plans for the workers' welfare.  Thousands of Wo Iorld Star employees are involved in various development activities in the country.  World Star workers were active in the construction of the Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Metro, Dubai Frame and the Future Museum.  Currently, thousands of workers are working in different parts of the country for Etihad Rail

Haseena Nishad, Managing Director, said that they can increase productivity by making the workers who work for them happily.  Company representatives, along with hundreds of workers, attended the labour appreciation ceremony and award ceremony held at the Labor Camp Office premises in Sharjah Sajja.
