Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (DEWA) | Customer Happiness Charter

YOUR HAPPINESS IS OUR PRIORITY

The Customer Happiness Charter has been developed so we can engage with you in a more meaningful way by adopting best practices in responsible customer happiness and providing innovative and smart solutions to make you happier. It sets our benchmarks and defines your service expectations, fostering engaged stakeholder participation to ensure excellence of government services. The charter is in line with ISO 10001:2018, The International Digital Customer Experience Standard (IDCXS 2022) and Global Star Rating System for Services. DEWA is committed to excellence in service provision that not only attains your happiness but also exceeds your expectations.
