Disabled? Emirates NBD has the bank especially for you

Dubai - Part of Dubai's My Community vision to transform emirate into disability-friendly city by 2020

Emirates NBD, one of the leading banks in the region, has inaugurated its first disability-friendly branch in Jumeirah, in line with the Government of Dubai's My Community vision to transform Dubai into a disability-friendly city by 2020.
The initiative is also part of the bank's Together Limitless advocacy platform to create a more inclusive community for people with disabilities in the UAE.
The Jumeirah branch, located at the Al Wasl Road intersection, is the first of four bank branches to be modified to better suit the needs of people with disabilities this year, with plans to further extend the programme. In phase one of the modification, focusing primarily on enhanced mobility access, all Jumeirah branch employees were trained on disability etiquette and the Sanad Card features.
An accessible main entrance door with pull and push buttons, accessible ramps, handrails, newly-painted zebra crossing, increased number of designated parking spots and anti-slip for slopes and ramps have been included to the branch's exterior.
Emirates NBD's Together Limitless platform, launched in 2015, aims to offer solutions to the issues faced by people with disabilities. These include adaption of branches to be more accessible to people with disabilities; workplace inclusion, an initiative to recognise talent, hire and train more people with disabilities; and a long-term partnership with Manzil's People Receiving Independence and Dignity through Empowermen, or Pride
