Dubai Healthcare City (DHCC) have set up a dedicated space for delivery riders while they wait. The healthcare and wellness freezone partners with CMC Dubai, Moorfields Eye Hospital Dubai and Al Manara Pharmacy to offer periodic health checkups and vitamin supplements for riders.
Riders’ Corner-DHCC is located in Al Razi Medical Complex (Building 64) in Dubai Healthcare City.
This new initiative features a custom air-conditioned space to provide the delivery riders with place to rest and get access to drinking water and phone charging stations. Riders will be also given access to complimentary periodic health check-ups and healthcare services.
“As Dubai’s healthcare and wellness freezone we feel it is our responsibility to assist as many people as possible within our society. The delivery riders are a vital workforce in the emirate braving the weather elements throughout the year, to serve the city’s residents,” said Jamal Ahmad Abdulsalam, CEO, Dubai Healthcare City Authority (DHCA), the governing body of DHCC.
“They are the backbone of modern Dubai, and it is vital they stay healthy and hydrated. Riders Corner-DHCC is our way of saying thank you, giving back and keeping the emirate moving forward in line with the wider health strategy,” he added.
DHCC has installed drinking water dispensers at the Riders Corner to facilitate riders access to cooled drinking water in response to the Dubai Can initiative.
Following the launch of the first Riders’ Corner-DHCC, plans are in place for a second location in Dubai Healthcare City at Ibn Sina Medical Complex (Building 27).
