The Ministry of State for Federal National Council (FNC) Affairs participated in the e-Signature initiative, which aims to automate human resources procedures by electronically placing signatures on ministerial decisions and formal procedures using the HR information management system “Bayanati”, which eliminates the need for printing.
In a meeting with a delegation from the Federal Authority for Government Human Resources, His Excellency Tariq Hilal Lootah, Undersecretary of the Ministry of State for FNC Affairs, applauded the Authority’s efforts in this regard, lauding the large-scale development in federal government operation, including the automation of all HR procedures in Ministries and federal entities. This serves to realise the aspirations and directions of the UAE leadership, who has called for an all-encompassing smart and digital transformation.
“The Ministry’s participation in the initiative reflects its commitment to upgrading the quality of services to meet the highest standards,” H.E. asserted. “We are always ready to participate in innovative community initiatives that enhance the UAE’s leading global position.”
“‘Bayanati’ is one of the most important initiatives launched by the Federal Authority for Government Human Resources. The system helps Ministries and federal entities manage their HR procedures efficiently, and providing accurate statistics in the process,” H.E. Lootah concluded, noting that “Bayanati” is one of the most strategic projects at the federal government level, and perfectly aligned with the vision of the UAE’s wise leadership.
The system is linked to the human resources information management system in the federal government, “My Data”. It facilitates procedures related to HR management – from hiring to retirement – as well as payroll in Ministries and federal entities. The objective is to enhance staff performance and strengthen human resource directorates in line with international best practice. Furthermore, the system seeks to establish a unified database for the federal government to support decision makers and facilitate planning procedures, advancing the UAE Government’s smart transformation goals.
Established in 2006, the Ministry of State for FNC Affairs coordinates between the government and the Federal National Council. It strives to guide parliamentary efforts in the interests of the nation and the citizens; develop perceptions to strengthen the relationship between the government and the FNC; and oversee the implementation of Cabinet decisions based on the FNC’s recommendations.
