Etihad Aviation Group is set to introduce healthier Weqaya-approved meal options to its staff restaurants after signing an agreement with The Health Authority - Abu Dhabi (HADD).

The Weqaya logo is only permitted on foods and at food outlets that meet strict requirements on preparation and ingredients, as governed by HAAD.

It can be displayed when food items, such as a salad or sandwich, contain less than 750 calories, are low in fat, saturated fat, salt and sugar, and high in fiber, among other specifications.

Omniyat Al Hajeri, director, public health and research, HAAD, said, "HAAD is ramping up its efforts to fulfill its vision for a healthier Abu Dhabi by promoting a healthy food culture in our community and ultimately increasing demand for it."
