Dubai Forums Dubai Expat Forums Working in Dubai

Hello,

my new sister in islam and myself are looking for a job in dubai. we are currently in jobs that do not allow us to wear hijab and an atomsphere where there is alcohol. We are happy in dubai because of the large muslim community but want to find peace in our daily lives which is hard when we are doing something we are conflicted with. Please let me know if you have any resources to help us. We are fluent english speakers my friend is from Austraila and I, myself am from Canada.

Thank you Kindly,

Shyh

Shyh ,'large muslim community'? er the entire country is muslim. Can't really offer up suggestions without knowing what your qualifications, experience and backgrounds are.

I'm assuming that you two are currently working in a hotel bar or restaurant, because that is the only place I can think of that wouldn't allow hijab and has alcohol around. There are many other service jobs etc. that have no alcohol in the workplace and allow women to wear hijab, so I'm sure you'll find a new job quickly.
