Task force intensifies health inspection during khareef
As Khareef Dhofar season advances, Dhofar Governorate is intensifying its health inspection and control measures across commercial establishments, restaurants and mobile vendors. These rigorous efforts are aimed at ensuring that all entities adhere to the highest health safety standards, thereby providing a safe and healthy environment for both visitors and residents.
Health control teams are operational around the clock in various wilayats of the governorate, divided into morning and evening shifts. This comprehensive initiative highlights the commitment of the relevant authorities to elevate the quality of services offered during this crucial tourist season, which draws thousands of visitors to Dhofar to relish its breathtaking natural landscapes and outstanding tourist amenities.
Hamed bin Mohammed Bamousa, Director of the Health Affairs Department in Dhofar Municipality, detailed in a Twitter post that the municipality has enacted a decision to form a task force dedicated to the management and regulation of temporary activities. This encompasses the organisation and establishment of markets for productive families in coordination with relevant authorities, and the elimination of unauthorised and non-compliant activities. The subcommittee will ensure strict adherence to health regulations, with inspection teams from the Health Control Department working tirelessly in shifts across different wilayats.
In addition to these measures, Dhofar Governorate has also launched a public awareness campaign to educate both residents and visitors about the importance of health and safety practices. This campaign includes informative sessions, distribution of educational materials and active engagement on social media platforms to reach a wider audience. The goal is to foster a culture of health consciousness that will complement the regulatory efforts being implemented.
Moreover, the municipality is collaborating with various stakeholders, including local businesses, community leaders and healthcare providers, to create a unified front in maintaining the highest standards of public health. Regular meetings and workshops are being organised to ensure that all parties are aligned with the health safety objectives and are equipped to handle any challenges that may arise during the busy season.
The establishment of the task force for the management and regulation of temporary activities is a significant step towards streamlining the operations of temporary markets and events.
