According to a new study published by Emirates Group and Dubai Airports, the aviation industry of Dubai is expected to generate 185,000 additional employment by 2030, therefore raising the overall workforce engaged in aviation-related activities to 816,000.

Oxford Economics' research shows that the aviation industry has had a major influence on Dubai's economy; by the end of 2023, some 631,000 people were working in aviation-related employment. This explains one in five emirate jobs, a number predicted to climb to one in four by 2030.

Dubai's aviation industry is expanding in response to both its fundamental economic influence and the catalytic effect of travel enabled by aviation. The primary impact is just 103,000 direct jobs in the sector, supplemented by supply chain expenditure and wage-funded consumption adding another 200,000 jobs. Due to the indirect impact of tourism and other linked businesses, the aviation sector supported 303,000 employment directly connected to its operations as well as another 329,000 jobs overall.

Particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 epidemic, which had first severely disrupted world aviation travel, the workforce of the sector has witnessed significant increase. As international traffic recovered, Dubai-based airlines including Emirates and flydubai greatly increased their operations and staff, introducing new routes and destinations. Chairman and CEO of Emirates Airline and Dubai Airports, Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum said that the industry's growth will create even more highly qualified employment, therefore strengthening the local economy.

The construction of Al Maktoum International Airport is one of the main forces behind employment creation and economic expansion in Dubai's aviation sector. It is expected to be the biggest airport in the world when completely operational, hence its development will have a big influence on employment. Though not mentioned in the main numbers of the report, the airport's development is estimated to add roughly Dh6.1 billion to Dubai's GDP by 2030, or one percent of the emirate's whole GDP. Furthermore, the building and running of the airport will create 132,000 jobs, which will make 3.7% of Dubai's total employment in that year.

Currently among the busiest airports worldwide, Al Maktoum International Airport, situated in Dubai World Central, is expected to be five times the size of Dubai International Airport ( DXB). Computed to be finished in ten years, the first phase of the new airport will have more than 400 airplane stands with capacity for 260 million passengers yearly. This growth will help to confirm Dubai's global leadership in trade, tourism, and air travel.

From 103,000 in 2023, Emirates Airline, Dubai Airports, and other aviation-related companies are predicted to employ around 127,000 directly by 2030. This shows more than twenty-three percent increase. By the end of 2023 Emirates alone hired 81,000 individuals in Dubai; by 2030 this number is predicted to rise to 104,000, Comparably Dubai Airports and other aviation sector companies hired 21,000 personnel in 2023; this is expected to climb to 23,000 over the same period.

Regarding indirect employment, Emirates backed 106,000 jobs in 2023 a figure anticipated to rise to 135,000 by 2030, Dubai Airports and other businesses helped 33,000 jobs be created in 2023; this figure is predicted to rise to 48,000. While Dubai Airports supported 67,000 employment in 2023, a figure expected to climb to 87,000 by 2030, Emirates overall helped to generate 413,000 jobs, or one in every eight jobs in the UAE.

With its total employment impact estimated to reach 516,000 jobs by 2030, Dubai's aviation industry is still a crucial part of the emirate's economy and will continue to be so in helping to drive development and prosperity in the area.
