Al Wakrah also initiated an inspection and awareness campaign focused on traditional food restaurants to ensure compliance with health standards and to educate workers on proper food handling procedures as part of its Eid preparations.
Municipalities such as Umm Salal, Al Khor, Al Thakhira, and Al Daayen organised comprehensive operational plans for Eid Al-Adha. These include enhancing the readiness of sanitation teams to operate around the clock, intensifying cleaning efforts in residential neighbourhoods, markets, and high-traffic areas, and organising traditional markets and livestock markets to ensure smooth operations in coordination with security authorities.
Supervision of abattoirs has been enhanced through increased operational capacity, additional work shifts, and the inclusion of veterinary inspectors to examine animals and ensure their wellbeing.
To maintain cleanliness during and after the slaughter process, the number of waste collection personnel and equipment has been doubled. Field patrols in neighbourhoods and markets have been intensified and additional waste bins have been distributed at key locations. A rapid response system for reports and complaints will be available through the unified call center.
The Ministry of Municipality asks the public to adhere to the use of licensed abattoirs for animal slaughter, avoid random and unsupervised practices, and cooperate with sanitation teams to maintain a clean and safe environment. The ministry emphasised that the success of these efforts relies on the awareness and cooperation of the entire community.
