Hello, My brother is wondering what the opportunities are for work as a plumber in Dubai or surrounding areas. He has 2 boys, 12 and 13. Would that make it more difficult to find employment?
Your feedback would be much appreciated
Cheers

I think it depends on what kind of qualifications he has. If you have good skills, then you can probably find a job. Otherwise, it may be hard. There are always plumbing jobs.

I've been reading some awful things about the way South Asian construction workers are treated. Are skilled and licensed construction workers brought in from South Asia, too, or are they mainly laborers?

Hi there,

I have just got on to a great new website for professionals and companies alike. Look up www.linekedin.com and go from there. I have linked up with an old boss after 7 years and we are talking business already. Take a look and you can link in to me if you like LinkedIn: Donna Parsons

Remember you heard it here first!

Good luck!

Donna
