Qatar chairs artificial intelligence session at 48th Arab Labour Conference – The Peninsula

Cairo: Qatar chaired on Tuesday the "Technical Committee on Artificial Intelligence and New Work Patterns" at the 48th session of the Arab Labour Conference (ALC), which is being held in Cairo.

The committee was chaired, on behalf of Qatar, by Mahmoud Abdullah Al Siddiqi, representative of the Ministry of Labour in the permanent delegation of Qatar in Geneva.

The selection of Qatar to chair the committee came in light of the successful experiences it has adopted in the fields of artificial intelligence and digital transformation, which have brought about a qualitative leap and great development in the work environment.

In addition to Qatar's chairing of the technical committee on artificial intelligence and new work patterns, the delegation of the Ministry of Labour also participated in the meetings of the Arab Labour Conference committees, which included the Finance and Governance committees.

Meanwhile, Dr. Abdullah Al Mohannadi, a consultant at the office of the Assistant Undersecretary for Labour Affairs at the ministry, was selected as vice-chairman of the Membership Accreditation Committee.

The Committee for the Implementation of Arab Labor Agreements and Recommendations praised the Domestic Workers Law of Qatar for the comprehensive protection it provides for domestic workers.
