Hiring in the United Arab Emirates
With a prime geographic location, world-renown technological infrastructure, and friendly environment toward foreign investment, the United Arab Emirates is a top destination for multinational organizations around the world. However, before hiring in the UAE, it’s important to understand its labor regulations. Employment relationships in the UAE are governed by such laws as the Federal Decree Law No. 33 of 2021, along with subsequent amendments. These laws outline workers’ rights, employer obligations, and procedures for labor disputes.
Additionally, UAE law places specific regulations on the use of temporary and agency workers. Because of the complexity of the UAE’s labor and tax laws, compliant employment contracts are a critical business requirement. With Safeguard Global as your partner, you can hire employees in the UAE with confidence, knowing that every contract meets legal standards. We also provide guidance on cultural expectations and hiring best practices, while helping you stay current with regulatory changes.
Relying on an employer of record (EOR) in the United Arab Emirates
An employer of record (EOR) provides an easier way for organizations to hire and pay local talent in the United Arab Emirates. Because of its in-country presence, the EOR can employ the workers a company needs and lease them to that company, taking care to comply with the United Arab Emirates’s labor laws. As a result, the organization doesn’t have to establish a legal presence or manage compliance in the United Arab Emirates.
The EOR can hire and onboard employees in as little as two weeks and manage ongoing responsibilities such as payroll, benefits, and taxes. A full-service EOR can also manage recruitment. Together, these EOR services significantly reduce the administrative burden for an organization.
