Tornado Group response re- exploitative working conditions for Nepali workers in UAE

Tornado addresses and refutes the false and unverified claims published by My Republica newspaper in their article link. Tornado emphasizes its commitment to ethical recruitment practices and outlines the measures it has implemented to ensure fairness and transparency in line with UAE regulations.

Tornado has thoroughly addressed all issues raised in the article. This includes the provision of mandatory government credentials, medical tests, financial assistance, food, and suitable accommodation that has been inspected and approved by authorities, health insurance, as well as proper personal protective equipment. Additionally, the company has organized comprehensive inductions for workers and ensured their participation in Tawjeeh, an initiative by the Ministry of Human Resources & Emiratisation (MoHRE) designed to educate employees about UAE Labor Law. Tornado has provided detailed documentation and evidence to support these assertions.

Tornado wishes to reaffirm that human rights are a core value and that it has fully complied with all labour laws. In an era where misinformation can spread rapidly, Tornado hopes My Republica would have reached out to them before publishing such claims, allowing the company the opportunity to present its side of the story.
