10 millones de trabajadores atrapados en Dubái: el coste humano que nadie muestra

Dubai presents itself to the world as a city of luxury, progress, and opportunity, but behind its skyscrapers and megaprojects lies a much harsher reality: millions of workers keep the city running day-to-day while facing ever-increasing rents, tight wages, work pressure, and an unbearable cost of living. In this documentary, we examine whether millions of workers are truly trapped in Dubai or whether economic pressure, visa systems, lack of job mobility, unaffordable housing, and job insecurity are creating a situation far more complex than it appears. Dubai's rapid growth depends on a massive foreign workforce that builds, cleans, transports, services, and keeps the city running. But when expenses rise faster than income, when changing jobs is complicated, and when returning home isn't always a viable option, many workers can feel trapped within the very system that promised them opportunities. This video explores the human cost of Dubai's economic model, its impact on migrant workers, the strain on the labor market, and the potential consequences for the city's future. Can Dubai continue to grow without addressing the plight of those who keep it running? #Dubai #MigrantWorkers #Economy
