Alroeya, 26 September 2021: The Jebel Ali Free Zone and Dubai Courts have announced they have launched the region’s first smart court.

It will consider the cases related to labour disputes for companies registered in the Free Zone.

The parties to a dispute will be able to attend a virtual court which will be connected with the Dubai Courts.

The smart court will create an environment similar to the classical courts with more integrated services. Almost 8,500 companies from 140 countries will benefit from the court’s services.

The aim of launching the smart court is to create a flexible judicial environment which will protect employee’s rights in the free zone and help improve judicial proceedings.
