Dulsco Group and clients root for climate change action in mangrove tree plantation drive

Dulsco Group has reinforced its commitment to spearheading
and supporting environmental initiatives by bringing together 100 team members from its
portfolio of businesses comprising Dulsco Environment, Dulsco People, Parisima and
Advance Global Recruitment, and corporate clients like BRF, ENOC Link and Fischer to
plant 300 mangrove trees to help in the fight against climate change.
Part of Dulsco Group’s sustainability agenda in the run up to COP28, the event was held to
support the UAE National Carbon Sequestration Project, which Dulsco proudly signed up for
in 2023. The Ministry of Climate Change and Environment project aims to plant 100 million
new mangrove trees across the country by 2030.

Each participant in the Dulsco drive planted three trees at Jebel Ali Wildlife Sanctuary, run
by the Emirates Marine Environmental Group (EMEG). And, thanks to new technology and
virtual reality, the trees’ progress and contribution to carbon savings can be monitored
through the EcoMatcher app, which promotes transparency and traceability in tree planting.

Mangrove trees play a key role in conservation, by stabilising and protecting coastlines,
preventing erosion, supporting wildlife within the ecosystem and serving as a habitat for
thousands of species. They also reduce harmful greenhouse gases by isolating up to 13.6
kg of carbon each year. This means that the 300 trees planted on 16 November – and the
120 planted by Dulsco last year – will collectively capture 5,712 kg of carbon dioxide
annually.

The UAE is currently home to 60 million mangrove trees that span 183 sq km and capture
43,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually. An additional 100 million trees will mean
115,000 tons of CO2 will be sequestered every year.

John Grainger, Chief Operating Officer at Dulsco Environment, said: “As a leading
force in environmental solutions, Dulsco is proud to support initiatives that preserve and
enhance our planet. Following our first mangrove tree planting initiative with our
employees last year, we made this year’s event bigger and better by bringing together our
valued team members and clients across our businesses as one, reinforcing our joint
commitment to creating a better future for our people and the world we live in.

“The EMEG does a wonderful job in protecting marine life at Jebel Ali, and we are delighted
to play our part in enhancing the sanctuary’s natural eco-system and biodiversity.”

Dulsco’s tree planting initiative also included a beach clean-up drive that resulted in
collecting 1,246 kilos of waste, in line with the company’s continued commitment to
protecting the environment and encouraging more green thinking among team members, key
stakeholders and the public.

Dhabi National Exhibition Centre in the presence of the TASC senior management team, and
HR specialists and industry veterans from MNCs, and semi-government organizations.
A recent survey conducted by TASC encompassing over 500+ Emiratis revealed that about
77% of the respondents preferred job portals and sites as a channel for employment search.
While 5% for each mentioned company website and recruitment agencies; the survey
helped observe the need for an innovative job search platform that will bridge the gap
between job seekers and available job opportunities for Emiratis. Falek Tayyeb has been
conceptualized to transform the job-hunt journey for Emiratis while being committed to
uplifting UAE nationals and contributing to the Emiratization vision of the UAE government.

significant divide between Emirati job seekers and current job opportunities. Aiming to close
this gap, Falek Tayyeb is geared towards offering a comprehensive solution that benefits
multiple stakeholders; Emirati candidates, businesses in the UAE and the UAE government.
Speaking at the launch Mahesh Shahdadpuri (Founder & CEO, TASC) said; “With Falek
Tayyeb we’re a step closer to fulfilling our promise to UAE nationals and helping them
connect with their dream jobs in their own country. This dedicated job search platform will
offer an exclusive channel to enter the UAE’s dynamic work environment. With that said,
Falek Tayyeb will also offer upskilling opportunities where Emirati candidates can enhance
their skills and enable personal growth. The UAE has been a global commercial hub that
helped millions of job seekers from around the world thrive together. It was time we took
the lead, and created the first-ever platform and application, a dedicated, reliable source of
recruiting locals for organizations, and job search for Emiratis which is successfully aligned
with the UAE government’s Emiratization goals.”
While actively highlighting and promoting job opportunities tailored for UAE nationals, the
app will also provide resources and support to Emiratis to enhance their skill sets. By
simplifying the job search process for Emirati professionals, the app ensures that candidates
discover and apply for roles aligned with their aspirations and skills. Falek Tayyeb also
provides organizations the unique opportunity to showcase their Emirati job openings
making it easier to connect with local talent. Built to accommodate the Emirati talent pool
across industries, the app intelligently streamlines recruitment processes for quicker and
accurate fulfilment of vacancies for Emiratis.

NAFIS Program. With a focus on ensuring all Emirati talents are understood and supported,
the platform will connect the right Emirati candidates with the right jobs in the UAE. By

brighter and more prosperous future for all.”
