WPS streamlines the payroll process which leads to greater transparency. It also fosters trust between employers and employees.

This blog explores the WPS in the UAE in detail. It highlights several key points that can help you master this essential system. So, let’s jump right ahead to see how you can better manage WPS in your business.

What is WPS in the UAE?

The Wage Protection System (WPS) in the UAE refers to an initiative that is the result of the mutual efforts of the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (MOHRE) and the Central Bank of the UAE.

This electronic salary transfer system facilitates the payment of workers’ wages through banks or other financial institutions. These financial institutions have the approval of the authorities to provide this service to businesses.

This system was introduced in July 2009 as per the Ministerial Decree No. 788. It aims to safeguard the rights of the employees in terms of their wages.

This system focuses on correct as well as timely payments to every single employee in the private sector, both in mainland and freezone areas of the UAE. The WPS system monitors these payments through its huge database, which promotes transparency.

In simple terms the UAE employers submit the wage files to the database of the MoHRE. The MoHRE and Central Bank validate the information to ensure compliance.

Here is what makes the WPS system effective. 

  • It tracks all salary transfer processes. In case of delays or wrong payments it alerts the relevant bodies in real-time.
  • It helps safeguard employees’ interests.
  • It eliminates the risks of wrong salary payments.
  • It also reduces payday delays.
  • It guarantees that every employer upholds their part of the contract in terms of monthly salaries.
  • Reduces labor disputes related to wages by storing data in a comprehensive database.
  • It helps authorities ensure employer compliance with UAE labor laws.

How to Register for WPS in the UAE

Every employer needs to register for the WPS to show compliance. This section covers some key steps that you can use to go through this process.

Documents You Will Need

Here are some standard documents that you must possess when you apply for the WPS registration.

  • Proof of a UAE-registered corporate bank account
  • Valid trade license
  • Company registration documents
  • Employee list along with their bank account details
  • Authorized signatory documents

Registration Process

  • First, the employers need to ensure they pay 70% of all staff and at least 75% of wages.
  • Then they must hire payroll services or a WPS agent that handles the payroll. Remember that you need a corporate account with the same bank or agent to initiate the process of salary transfer.
  • They must pay fees as well as any other expenses incurred in WPS.
  • To register or open an account you can visit the MOHRE website
  • Then you need to submit the required documents. The documents you have to provide vary based on your industry.
  • Complete the WPS registration form provided by the chosen agent.
  • Sign the WPS service agreement with the agent.
  • You will receive your login ID for the WPS portal after registration.

How Does WPS Work

Here are the Steps that a typical WPS process follows after a company registers for this system.

  • The employer prepares and submits an SIF or Salary Information File to the WPS agent when they pay wages. This file lists information like the basic pay, benefits, and deductions.
  • The WPS agent checks the SIF for errors and makes necessary edits before you submit it.
  • Next up the MoHRE and the Central Bank of the UAE conduct a salary check based on this file to ensure information accuracy. 
  • Then these authorities issue a payment order if the verification leads to zero discrepancies.
  • The employer will receive an email if there are any errors in the file. This email requests an update to the records.
  • Once the payment order comes, the agent transfers the money to your employees. WPS banks or agents issue unique WPS payroll cards, which work much like debit cards that you use normally.

The SIF Format for the WPS

In order to ensure WPS compliance, you need to pay extra attention to the SIF file. Make sure this file follows an accurate format that has the approval of MoHRE.

You can start with a blank Excel document. Enter a section with the title Employee Details Record (EDR) in this file. This section lists key information about every employee who is on your payroll.

Apart from the EDR column, you also need to add additional columns for the following data.

  • 14-digit labor card number of the worker
  • Start and End dates of salary 
  • Number of days for which the employee owes the salary
  • Bank Routing Code
  • Bank Account details of the employees 
  • Fixed or Basic Salary
  • Variable Salary
  • Number of leaves

This file also contains a Salary Control Record (SCR), which gives you the information on the employer.

The SCR details include

  • Salary Control Record 
  • Bank routing code
  • 13-digit Agent ID 
  • File creation date
  • Time of file creation
  • Number of records in the file (EDR only)
  • Total amount of salary paid 
  • Payroll month and year
  • Payment currency
  • Optional field

After you add this information to the SIF Excel file you need to come up with a name for it. The name of an SIF file is a combination of your MoHRE employer ID, date, and the time.

The first 13 digits of the name are from the employer’s ID on SCR. Then you need to add the date in the YYMMDD format. For the last six digits you can enter the time in hhmmss format. This gives you a unique 25-digit file name for your SIF files.

Mastering the Wage Protection System (WPS) in the UAE: Expert Insights

These expert insights will help you do well during audit and compliance checks so keep on reading till the end.

  • Educate Yourself On WPS

Look into MoHRE and Central Bank regulations about WPS. Make sure to understand payment deadlines as well as compliance thresholds. Also keep up with the penalties and regulatory updates. This can help you avoid violations that result from inadequate WPS knowledge.

  • Create WPS Aligned Employment Contracts

Your employee contract should match the WPS requirements in terms of basic salary or allowances thresholds. There should be no undocumented salary changes in this contract.

In case of promotions or increments, make sure to update this contract accordingly to avoid salary mismatches on WPS.

  • Use Payroll Systems that Comply with WPS

Your payroll system must have approval from MoHRE. This system should facilitate automatic SIF generation. You still need to validate the SIF before submission since it ensures fewer errors.

  • Compensate The Employees On Time

Make sure you pay the salary to your employee on the exact date that the contract entails. The delay should never be beyond the 15-day threshold. You can use a compliance calendar to track pay cycles to stay on the safe side. You can also initiate the payroll processing at least 5–7 days before the due date on the contract to avoid delays.

  • Partner with the Right WPS Bank or Agent

Make sure to pick a WPS agent who has a lot of experience in WPS processing. Expert agents ensure a much faster SIF validation. These professionals also give you the integration capabilities with your existing payroll systems, which streamlines the WPS processes.

  • Monitor WPS Compliance Metrics Every Month

You need to examine things like the percentage of employees paid (minimum 90%) as well as the percentage of salary paid (minimum 80%) every single month. You can also look at rejected SIF files to further streamline the process. The analysis of these metrics helps you correct issues quickly, which helps with compliance in the future.

  • Train HR and Finance Teams Regularly

You need to train your accounting and bookkeeping teams in payroll accuracy and MoHRE compliance standards. Your HR or finance teams should also be able to handle MoHRE notices and employee disputes quickly. Regular training of the employee in the best WPS practices can eliminate operational bottlenecks, which translates into greater productivity.

  • Plan Cash Flow Around Payroll Obligations

Proper cash flow management is essential to WPS compliance. Make sure you maintain a dedicated payroll account without errors. You also need to forecast salary obligations monthly to avoid surprises. Make sure you do not use the payroll funds for operational expenses, as it can result in delayed or missed salaries, which makes you liable to penalties.

Penalties for Non-Compliance

Here are some potential fines or penalties that businesses must pay if they fail to comply with the WPS regulations in the UAE.

  • First noncompliance results in warnings and work permit restrictions.
  • The second violation subjects you to a work permit suspension.
  • For third violations, the authorities charge you an AED 5,000 fine per employee.
  • Late salary payments lead to an AED 1,000 fine per employee.
  • Inaccuracy in the SIF file submission leads to a fine of AED 5,000.
  • If you do not register with the WPS altogether, you become subject to fines as well as work permit restrictions.

Conclusion

The WPS in the UAE fosters a transparent and secure payment method, which leads to a more productive as well as harmonious workplace.

To master the wage protection system, every business must strive to display a certain level of discipline. Entities that behave proactively can earn employee trust and avoid hefty penalties at the same time.

For employers, this system ensures full compliance with the UAE labor laws, which translates into greater operational discipline and efficiency.

Who Regulates Payroll Compliance in the UAE?

Different authorities take care of different aspects of payroll in the UAE. Below is a quick overview of the same:

Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE)

MOHRE is the leading authority that looks after private-sector jobs in the UAE. It oversees important aspects such as contracts, wages, working hours, gratuity benefits, and the mandatory use of the Wage Protection System. 

Think of it like an intermediary between the employer and the employee. It assures that the labor practices are fair and align with the country’s laws. Additionally, the MOHRE is responsible for the Emiratisation program. It works hand in hand with companies for integrating UAE nationals in the private sector. Another area that MOHRE looks into is dispute resolution. It mediates and arbitrates disputes between employers and employees for fair settlements. 

Federal Tax Authority (FTA)

The FTA regulates two aspects of payroll-related processing:

  • 5% VAT on employee benefits. For example, housing and transportation.
  • Corporate tax (linked to payroll costs)

General Pension and Social Security Authority (GPSSA)

GPSSA manages pensions for UAE and GCC nationals, helping them build a strong retirement fund. You’ll have to register eligible employees with GPSSA and make monthly contributions.

As of 2025, the total contribution rate is 20% for private sector employees. It is determined by the employee’s salary and is calculated on the pensionable wage. Below is a breakdown of the contribution:

Entity  Percentage [out of 20]
Employer  12.5
Employee 5
Government  2.5

 

If the employee has joined after October 2023, the updated percentages are as follows:

Entity  Percentage
Employer  15
Employee 11
Government  2.5 (if salary is less than AED 20,000)

The Wage Protection System

Introduced in 2009, the Wage Protection System is mandatory for all private companies. Under the WPS, employers have to pay salaries through approved banks or exchange houses. MOHRE monitors these payments electronically to ensure employees are paid fully and on time.

What Changed with the Enhanced WPS?

The WPS covers more than 99% of employees working in the private sector with wages exceeding AED 35 billion monthly. The MOHRE has developed a new fully digital system along with the Central Bank of the UAE, Al Etihad Payments, and a group of financial institutions. It is a result of the partnership between the Ministry and e& Group, Lulu Exchange, GCC Exchange, and others to secure rights and ensure transparency. 

Key improvements include:

  • Accelerated registration and verification process
  • Ability to retrieve data directly from MOHRE
  • Real-time salary verification
  • Automated wage data processing
  • High-accuracy monitoring of delays or violations

As a result, payroll errors are detected faster. Also, compliance expectations are higher.

WPS Compliance Requirements for Employers

If you’re an employer, you need to be mindful of the following compliances:

  • Registration with MOHRE or the relevant free zone authority
  • A corporate bank account supported in the WPS
  • Preparation and submission of Salary Information File (SIF)
  • Electronic payment of salaries within 15 days of the due date. You must avoid cash or cheque payments. 
  • Immediately resolve all rejected or delayed transactions. 

Other compliances:

  • Register all new employees in WPS within 60 days of contract signing
  • You cannot deduct more than 10% of your employee’s salary. It is only allowed if it is specified by law.

Penalties for WPS Non-Compliance

In case you fail to comply with the WPS, you may be fined or penalized with the following:

  • WPS blocking and suspension: If you miss payment deadlines, your new work permits can be blocked after 17 days past the due date. Moreover, all companies under the same ownership can face the consequences. 
  • Fines: You’ll have to pay AED 1,000 for each employee for false wage data. Other penalties apply for manipulating working hours. 
  • Labour ban: If you’re a serious offender, you may be banned from onboarding staff and face legal action.

Key Payroll Requirements Under UAE Labour Law

Here are some important payroll requirements under the UAE labour law:

Employment Contracts

All employees must be issued renewable, fixed-term contracts for a maximum of 3 years. These must be registered with MOHRE within 14 days of joining. Contracts must clearly state the following aspects of employment:

  • Basic salary
  • Allowances
  • Payment frequency
  • Deductions
  • Payment method
  • Net pay

Payroll records, including contracts and proof of payment, must be kept for at least five years. Note that if the salary is not paid within 15 days after the due date, the employer is considered late.

Salary Deductions

Deductions are allowed only in limited cases, such as:

  • Unpaid absences
  • Approved salary advances
  • Legal penalties under labour law

Working Hours, Overtime, and Pay

Standard working hours are 8 hours per day or 48 hours per week. But during Ramadan, Muslim employees work 6 hours per day or 36 hours per week. If your employee is working overtime beyond the legally allowed limits, you must pay them as per the labour law. 

There is no fixed minimum salary in the UAE. But still, the salary should be enough for basic living needs. And it should be the same as mentioned in the job contract.

End-of-Service Benefits (EOSB) and Savings Schemes

Gratuity (Mainland & Non-DIFC/ADGM)

Employers must accrue gratuity as follows:

  • 21 days’ basic salary per year for the first 5 years
  • 30 days’ basic salary per year after that
  • Maximum cap of 2 years’ total wage

DIFC – DEWS Scheme

For DIFC employees, employers must contribute:

  • 5.83% of basic salary (service under 5 years)
  • 8.33% (service over 5 years)

ADGM

ADGM employers must meet gratuity obligations. They must also prepare for the qualifying savings scheme starting from April 2025. Regular reconciliation helps avoid underfunding issues.

Mandatory Health Insurance

Health insurance is employer-funded and mandatory. Valid coverage is required for visa issuance and renewal. It is best to stay on top of insurance regulations as they update across the Emirates. 

Emiratisation and Payroll Compliance

If a company has 50 or more employees, it has to follow Emiratisation rules. This means the company needs to hire Emirati people for skilled jobs. If not:

  • Employers face AED 9,000 per month per missing role
  • Penalties increase each year

Payroll systems must track nationality, job roles, and salaries accurately to support reporting.

Staying Compliant With the UAE Laws

The UAE is constantly updating its laws to benefit all stakeholders equally. In fact, its policies, rules, and regulations make it one of the most structured and safe places to work. However, a small misstep, ignorance, or non-compliance with the laws can result in hefty penalties.

Outsourcing HR and Payroll in the UAE: How It Cuts Costs for Startups and SMEs

Outsourcing HR and Payroll in the UAE: How It Cuts Costs for Startups and SMEs 800 500 HRSG

The UAE is home to over 1.2 million companies. About a million of those are owned by entrepreneurs. That makes roughly 94% of all businesses in the country. Small and medium-sized enterprises, or SMEs, make up around 95% of active companies in the market.

Cities like Abu Dhabi and Sharjah are buzzing with innovation. Golden Visas, zero corporate taxes, investor-friendly policies… it’s a paradise on paper. 

Yet, behind the numbers, small teams struggle. Recruitment delays, payroll errors, and legal missteps, any of these can slow growth. Or worse, they can hurt your reputation. Outsourcing HR and payroll is a lifeline for many UAE startups and SMEs. The difference between drowning in paperwork and scaling with confidence.

The UAE’s Diverse Talent Landscape

With 88% of the population constituting expats, one of the UAE’s biggest strengths is its multicultural workforce. Professionals from India, the Philippines, Europe, Africa, and across the Middle East fill the talent pool. This mix brings fresh ideas, multilingual skills, and perspectives that startups need to compete globally. However, recruiting such talent comes with challenges.

Visa and Work Permit Compliance

Every non-UAE citizen requires proper sponsorship, and processing delays can impact operations.

Labour Law Nuances

Wage Protection System (WPS) compliance, overtime calculations, leave entitlements, and gratuity rules, they all change depending on employment contracts and whether you’re in a free zone or mainland. Even minor mistakes can lead to fines.

Cultural and Salary Expectations

Employees from different regions have different ideas about benefits, housing, transport, and leave policies. Startups often struggle. They want to stay competitive but also watch the budget. Not easy!

High Competition for Skilled Workers

Multinationals offer attractive packages. But small startups have to be smart: efficient, creative, and careful with spending, just to attract and keep talent.

Handling all this in-house takes time, expertise, and money. Which, for many startups and SMEs, are exactly the resources they don’t have. That makes outsourcing HR and payroll a convenient as well as almost essential move.

How Outsourcing Cuts Costs

Outsourcing HR and payroll saves money in many ways. Here’s how it works for UAE startups and SMEs:

Lower Fixed Overheads

Hiring a full HR team involves salaries, benefits, office space, hardware, and software licenses. Outsourcing removes most of these costs. Instead, businesses pay a predictable monthly fee or per-employee charges that scale with growth. Fixed costs turn into variable ones, making budgeting easier for startups.

Access to Expertise

One slip, be it miscalculated end-of-service benefits, late WPS submissions, or payroll errors, and fines can be hefty. HR outsourcing firms live in this world. They stay updated with legal changes, making sure payroll and HR operations are fully compliant. Basically, they help you dodge financial and legal headaches.

Advanced HR Technology Without Investment

Modern HR outsourcing providers bring cloud-based HRIS systems, automated payroll software, and secure data storage to the table. Such tools like these would cost a fortune if you tried to implement them in-house. On the contrary, with outsourcing, startups get access to sophisticated tech, without the upfront investment.

Time Savings and Operational Efficiency

Managing HR in-house consumes hours. Hours your founders or managers could spend on product development, marketing, or sales. Outsourcing frees up that time. Plus, automated payroll, attendance tracking, and leave management cut down errors and admin delays.

Scalability and Flexibility

Startups start small. But growth often comes fast, after funding or when the market picks up. Outsourced HR and payroll scale with you. Costs adjust if the business slows. It’s the flexibility SMEs in the UAE need during rapid growth cycles.

Recruitment and Onboarding Support

Outsourcing firms offer recruitment assistance. They maintain talent databases and screen candidates. They also manage onboarding processes including visa applications, contracts, and health insurance. This way, recruitment gets faster. Costs also go down. Eventually, your team spends less time juggling paperwork.

Payroll Outsourcing: The Real Game-Changer

Apart from just paying salaries, payroll involves accuracy, compliance, and confidentiality. In the UAE, the WPS makes sure salaries are processed on time, through official channels.

Outsourced payroll services handle:

  • Accurate salary calculations, including overtime, allowances, and deductions.
  • Regulatory compliance, like WPS submissions, gratuity calculations, and labour law adherence.
  • Confidentiality and security, so sensitive employee data is encrypted and securely stored.
  • Cost efficiency, so no need to buy payroll software, hire extra finance staff, or train employees.

For SMEs operating on tight margins, payroll outsourcing can contribute to cost reduction and risk mitigation.

3 Key Strategic Benefits Beyond Cost Savings

Outsourcing HR and payroll is a financial decision that adds strategic value in many ways:

  • Expert Advice: Outsourcing partners provide insights on salary benchmarking, employee engagement, and retention strategies.
  • Improved Employee Experience: Timely payments, clear contracts, professional HR processes. Staff notice and appreciate it.
  • Legal Peace of Mind: Businesses don’t need to constantly monitor changes in labour law, free zone regulations, or visa procedures.

For startups, this frees up bandwidth to focus on growth. Investors and clients also see organized HR systems as a sign of credibility.

4 Common Challenges and How to Overcome Them

Outsourcing does offer significant benefits. But SMEs must be aware of potential challenges:

  • Provider Quality: Choose a partner with experience in UAE labour laws and a proven track record.
  • Hidden Costs: Check what’s included. Visa processing, document translation, extra consultations?
  • Loss of Control: Maintain some internal oversight to ensure company culture and policies are upheld.
  • Data Security: Ensure the provider adheres to strict data protection standards.

Conclusion

The UAE offers huge opportunities for startups and SMEs. But operational complexity, compliance rules, and recruiting diverse talent can stretch limited resources. Outsourcing HR and payroll addresses these challenges. It’s cost-efficient, scalable, and compliant.

Making the most of outsourcing helps you:

  • Turn fixed costs into variable ones
  • Minimize compliance risks
  • Speed up recruitment and onboarding
  • Eliminate payroll errors

Startups and SMEs can then focus on innovation, customer acquisition, and market expansion. Consequently, they leave admin issues to the experts. 

For UAE businesses aiming to scale efficiently, outsourcing is simply the smart way to build teams, manage payroll, and stay compliant. You get all of this while keeping resources focused on growth.

High-Volume Recruitment Solutions: How RPO Can Help Your Business Scale

High-Volume Recruitment Solutions: How RPO Can Help Your Business Scale 800 500 HRSG

Recruiting benchmarks for 2025 are in, and the numbers appear very interesting. On average, 79 applicants per role, 3 are interviewed, and only 1 offer is made. The global median time for making a hire is 38 days. With AI, this process can be completed 26% faster. 

That being said, there is still a significant issue with high-volume recruitment. If you have found yourself burdened with overflowing resumes, delayed interview timelines, and poor show rate, you know what we are talking about. The pressure to fill roles without losing quality starts to feel like a steep mountain that is impossible to climb. That’s where Recruitment Process Outsourcing steps in to make the impossible possible. Let’s take a closer look at it in today’s blog. 

What’s coming next for you:

  • What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing 
  • How does RPO work 
  • Challenges with high-volume recruitment 
  • How does RPO help 

What Is Recruitment Process Outsourcing 

Hiring ten people in a month is doable. Hiring 100 is a challenge. Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a strategic approach whereby you outsource some or all aspects of hiring to a third-party hiring expert. The approach allows you to leverage external expertise in talent acquisition, freeing time to focus on improving business operations. 

You may want to outsource only specific aspects of hiring, such as screening or sourcing candidates, or have your RPO partner carry out the entire process from screening to hiring. 

How does RPO work?

Here’s a quick overview of how RPO works: 

1. Needs Assessment

A third-party expert carries out RPO. Consequently, the RPO experts must first understand your business, its culture, and how hiring will impact your business operations. This may involve speaking to our current employees, understanding the present hiring process from your HR, and going through past hires. 

You may wonder, “Will this breach my internal control?” The answer is NO. It may look like that but the real goal is understanding how your business functions daily. 

Some of the other aspects that the RPO experts may want to understand about your business may include:

  • Which roles have a high turnover?
  • Which roles are challenging to fill?
  • What could be your future staffing demands based on your growth?

2. Strategy & Solutions

The next step is to create a blueprint of the recruitment process. For instance, which channels are more suitable for sourcing candidates, what should the screening criteria be, and how long should the end-to-end process ideally take? It may also involve highlighting expected challenges and possible solutions to ensure the deadlines are met. 

3. Sourcing & Screening

After the blueprint, the actual work begins. The RPO experts will put the plan into action, sourcing candidates, collecting their details, reviewing their resumes, and possibly conducting the initial interviews. They will also perform background checks and reference verification for all candidates. 

Imagine the kind of resource you will require to do all of this in-house for not one but 100s and 1000s of candidates. 

4. Selection & Onboarding

After the initial screening, the data will be shared with your hiring manager. The RPO experts then coordinate between your hiring manager and the candidate to align expectations and the company’s needs. They also offer structured evaluations and comparisons to help you make an informed decision. 

If you’ve opted for offer management, then the RPO expert will create and negotiate the best job offers, ensuring clarity about pay, benefits, and employment terms. Finally, they will support you with the onboarding process and essential paperwork. 

Some RPOs may extend their support beyond the hiring process to offer training support, monitor new hires, and facilitate feedback.

Challenges With High-Volume Recruitment 

Now that you know what the overall process may look like, what are some of the challenges your business may face for high-volume recruitment? Some of the common ones are explained here:

1. Manual Resume Screening

When applications start pouring in, manually reviewing each resume becomes time-consuming. Your HR team will have to spend valuable hours scanning for relevant skills, experience, and qualifications, only to risk overlooking strong candidates due to human error or fatigue.

It is also quite possible that you may not have a centralized system for screening resumes or the advanced software that makes screening easier. This makes the entire screening process prone to errors.

2. Scheduling Individual Interviews 

Communicating with 100 potential candidates at once is no small feat. Scheduling conflicts can arise easily between candidate availability, interviewer calendars, and possible time zone differences. This delays the hiring process, may frustrate candidates, and negatively impacts their overall experience.

3. Maintaining Consistent Evaluation Standards

When several hiring managers are involved, consistency becomes difficult to ensure. The sheer variations in assessment styles and unconscious bias can lead to uneven candidate experiences and questionable hiring outcomes.

4. Candidate Drop-Offs

Time is money. The longer the process, the higher the risk of losing talent. In a highly competitive market, especially in Dubai, top candidates may accept offers elsewhere before you can finalize their applications.

5. Strain on In-House HR Teams

High-volume recruitment demands more resources than most in-house HR teams can handle. It is not easy to juggle everyday responsibilities with sudden hiring spikes. This often results in burnout, miscommunication, or costly mistakes.

Rising Tension

When these challenges appear, the hiring process slows down, and so do efficiency and quality. Instead of finding and recruiting top talent, your team will spend its energy on repetitive tasks, coordination issues, and firefighting problems as they arise.

For companies facing large-scale hiring needs, the stakes are simply too high to rely on outdated or patchwork recruitment methods. This is where Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) comes into play.

How Does RPO Services Help

RPO services go beyond traditional methods, integrating the latest technology and scalable processes to manage recruitment quickly and efficiently. 

1. Streamline Resume Screening

RPO experts leverage advanced screening tools and their expertise to quickly identify the right talent. Instead of wasting time on repetitive sorting, the focus shifts to high-quality candidates who actually match the role requirements. This shortens the hiring process and reduces the risk of overlooking strong applicants. 

2. Efficient Scheduling

Your RPO partner will have dedicated coordinators who manage the entire process using scheduling tools. This way, candidates receive timely updates without the back-and-forth emails. For you, it means fewer drop-outs and lost time. 

3. Consistency in Evaluation

Inconsistent evaluations are one of the biggest risks in large-scale recruitment. An RPO introduces a structured evaluative framework familiar to all its experts. You can rest assured that every candidate is being evaluated without bias solely based on their qualifications and skillset. 

4. Reduced Candidate Drop-Offs

The talent market is a game of “who gets to the candidate first.” If your process drags, candidates will move on to other offers. RPOs help prevent this by ensuring faster turnaround times, proactive communication, and consistent follow-ups throughout the recruitment journey. Thus, keeping the candidate in constant communication makes them feel valued and engaged.

Gratuity Calculator UAE: How It Works and Why You Need It?

Gratuity Calculator UAE: How It Works and Why You Need It? 800 500 HRSG

The UAE is globally known for creating policies that benefit employees and employers equally, striking a balance between the two. Moreover, these policies ensure that both parties receive their dues as deserved. One such policy is gratuity benefits. 

Gratuities are an essential component that all UAE employees need to understand. Gratuities, also called end-of-service benefits, guarantee that workers receive payment for their years of service and dedication. In this blog, we will break down what Gratuity is and why it’s important. We’ll also explore how the calculations work in the UAE. 

What Is Gratuity?

Gratuity is also known as end-of-service benefits. It is designed to reward employees for their tenure with an organization. In the UAE, labor laws govern these benefits. They depend on specific factors such as: 

  • Employment duration
  • The type of contract
  • Reason for termination

According to UAE labor law, gratuity entitlement begins after one year of continuous service. The calculation is based on the employee’s basic salary and years of service using a distinct formula.

Moreover, Gratuity may accompany other end-of-service benefits, including payments for unused annual leaves or pending salaries. Consequently, reviewing employment contracts and understanding legal entitlements helps employees receive the full range of financial benefits upon leaving a job smoothly and without disputes. Similarly, it helps employers stay compliant with the latest regulations and avoid legal trouble.

Gratuity rules are further clarified under Article 51 of the UAE Labor Law. The highlights include:

  • A pro-rata gratuity for fractions of a year after one year of continuous service.
  • Calculations are based solely on the basic salary, excluding allowances like housing or transportation.
  • Deduction of owed amounts from gratuity payments, if applicable.
  • Mandatory payment of all dues within 14 days of contract termination.

Significant Change to Gratuity Rules 

Post the revisions of the UAE labor law in 2022, the Ministry of Human Resources & Emiratisation (MOHRE) changed the way employers were hiring. Previously, expat workers or employees were employed in the UAE under two kinds of contracts: limited and unlimited contracts. Limited contracts had a predefined start and end date. In contrast, the unlimited contracts only had a start date with specific working terms and conditions. 

After the revisions, unlimited contracts are no longer valid. The MOHRE has eliminated this particular type of contract to reduce disputes between employers and employees. Furthermore, they want to ensure equal gratuity benefits to all foreign workers in the private sector. 

Rules for Gratuity based on Resignation and Termination

There are 6 different ways in which a work contract could end. Below is an overview of all of them, along with the expected gratuity outcome:

  • Resignation by the Employee

If the employee voluntarily resigns before completing a year of service, they are not eligible for gratuity benefits. The same applies in the case they resign without prior notice or completing their notice period. 

However, if they resign after a year of service, they are eligible for the benefits. 

      2. Termination by the Employer 

The employee is not eligible for the gratuity benefits if:

  • The employer terminated the contract a year ago. In this case, the employee is only entitled to compensation, that too if mentioned in the contract. 
  • The employer has terminated the contract with a valid reason and evidence for employees breaking contract terms. 

If the employer terminates the contract after a year but before the expiry WITHOUT valid reason, the employee is entitled to gratuity benefits and other end-of-service benefits.

      3. Termination With Mutual Consent

The gratuity benefits are only entitled if the employer and the employee mutually terminate the contract after one year of service. 

      4. Termination by Contract Expiry

If the limited contract expires and the employer does not want to renew it, the employee will receive all the benefits. However, suppose the employment contract expires in less than a year or it expires later but the employee hasn’t worked continuously for a year. In that case, they are not entitled to the gratuity benefits. 

     5. Termination by Court Order or Police Arrest  

In case a court order terminates the contract, the gratuity benefits are only applicable if they are mentioned in the order. Similarly, if the police arrest the employee and a case is filed, the employee is not entitled to Gratuity until the case is resolved. 

     6. Termination due to Redundancy or Restructure 

If the employer terminates the contract due to lack of work (redundancy), the employee is entitled to a gratuity if they have worked for a year or longer. In the case of restructuring, the employee will receive a Gratuity if they have worked for a year or longer.

In addition to Gratuity, the employee is also entitled to 1 to 3 months’ salary as compensation if it is mentioned in the contract.

Contract Termination

Why Is A Gratuity Calculator Important?

The gratuity calculator simplifies complex calculations. It also ensures compliance with UAE labor laws. Here’s why it’s beneficial:

  • With its intuitive design, the Gratuity Calculator is accessible to both employees and employers. This makes it easy to calculate gratuity.
  • The Ministry of Human Resources & Emiratisation mandates using the official formula mandated. The calculator ensures precise results. This instills confidence in users.
  • The calculator clearly illustrates years of service and basic salary impact gratuity. So, individuals get empowered to make informed financial decisions.
  • Understanding Gratuity shows that employers value their workforce’s contributions. Also, employees gain the assurance that their efforts are recognized and rewarded fairly.

How Do You Calculate Gratuity?

Gratuity calculation in the UAE depends on the employee’s basic salary and length of service. The following example outlines the process:

Basic Salary Example: AED 10,000

Step 1: Identify Daily Wage

To begin, divide the monthly salary by 30 to calculate the daily wage:

AED 10,000 ÷ 30 = AED 333.30 (Daily wage)

Step 2: Multiply Daily Wage by 21

Next, multiply the daily wage by 21 (the number of days used for gratuity calculation in the first year):

AED 333.30 × 21 = AED 6,999.30 (21 days’ wage)

Step 3: Apply Service Duration Rules

For employees with different lengths of service, the gratuity calculation changes:

  • For 1-3 years: The employee is entitled to 1/3 of AED 6,999.30 for each year of service.
  • For 3-5 years: The employee is entitled to 2/3 of AED 6,999.30 for each year of service.
  • For 5+ years: The employee is entitled to the full AED 6,999.30 for each year of service.
  • For employees completing over five years, Gratuity increases to 30 days’ wage for each additional year. Employers may also deduct any amounts owed by the employee, such as for unpaid leave or damages, from the gratuity payment.

Note that this method ensures precision. But quick tools like the Gratuity Calculator automate these steps to simplify the process. 

Factors to Keep in Mind While Calculating Gratuity

Several factors affect how Gratuity is calculated. This includes minimum service requirement, service term, basic salary, absence without pay, type of contract, and reason for termination. Understanding these factors helps in accurate calculations. It also helps employees negotiate fair settlements during end-of-service transitions.

The following is a brief overview of these factors: 

  • Employees must complete at least one year of continuous service to qualify for Gratuity. If an employee leaves before completing one year, they are not entitled to Gratuity.
  • Employees who have worked between 1 and 5 years are entitled to 21 days’ salary for each year of work.
  • Employees who have worked for more than 5 years are entitled to 30 days’ salary for each additional year beyond the first five.
  • Gratuity calculations are based solely on the basic salary. This excludes any allowances or benefits such as housing, transportation, or bonuses.
  • Any days of absence without pay are excluded from the total service period used in the calculation. This means that employees cannot count unpaid leave days toward their total service for gratuity purposes.
  • If an employee resigns or is terminated for misconduct, gratuity payments may be affected. But if the termination is not due to misconduct, the employee is typically entitled to full Gratuity.

Conclusion

Gratuity is more than just a financial benefit. It reflects an employer’s appreciation for an employee’s service and dedication. Understanding how Gratuity works under UAE labor law empowers employees to plan for their financial future. It also ensures that employers uphold their obligations transparently.

Tools like the Gratuity Calculator make calculations simple and precise. They ensure compliance. If you’re an employee preparing for a transition, it’s helpful. If you’re an employer, it provides clarity. So, staying informed about gratuity regulations is a key element. It also ensures financial security at work and lowers the risk of disputes. Thus encouraging a healthy, transparent relationship between employers and employees.

Factors That Can Affect the Best Time to Send a Job Application Email

Following are a few factors that can influence the time when you need to send the email: 

    • The first thing that can influence the timing is the type of industry you are hoping to get into.
    • The size of the company is another factor. Larger corporations have different working hours as well as email checking habits as compared to SMEs.
    • Businesses that have roles that need urgent hiring have quicker responses than those with prolonged hiring needs or processes.
    • Another factor is the beginning of the fiscal year for the company or the region. This is the time when budgets are set and the momentum starts to build up on newer projects which increases your chances of landing a job that you want.

Sending a Job Application Email: Based on the Day of the Week

Mentioned below is the right time to send a job application email based on the day of the week which guarantees more career opportunities.

  • Monday & Tuesday

The start of the workweek is the time when the recruiters are generally more fresh, focused, and motivated. These are the best days to send the job application emails as it gives you more chances of being read and considered by the recruiter.

  • Wednesday

The mid of the week is also a good time but it isn’t as effective as Mondays or Tuesdays. Most recruiters are done considering new candidates by this time which leaves very little room for you. But if you missed the previous two days then you can send the email on Wednesday and expect to get positive results.

  • Thursday & Friday

These are the days when recruiters are winding down and getting ready for the weekend. They have to catch up on other important tasks which prevents them from opening up their inboxes. So, it is better to avoid sending emails during these days.

  • Saturday and Sunday

Every expert recruiter recommends not sending any job applications on the weekend. Emails sent during these days are more likely to get buried under other applications or other work emails which wastes both your time and energy.

Sending a Job Application Email: Based on the Time of the Day

Different businesses have different hiring policies as well as HR priorities. This can also affect the time of the day when you can send the email and get the best results.

  • 6 AM – 9 AM

Sending an email during these hours guarantees more success rates. The emails sent during this time are more likely to get opened and read by the recruiters.

  • 9 AM – 11 AM

These are also effective times of the day to send emails as by now the recruiters have settled down in their offices and are ready to do their day’s work of going through job application emails.

  • 12 PM – 3 PM

Early afternoon is a slightly less effective time to send an email. The hiring manager might get busy in meetings or other management tasks during these hours which reduces the chances of your email getting read.

  • 3 PM – 6 PM

After 3 PM these recruiters are mostly getting done for the day. They are in the process of finalizing application screening and have no time to consider newer emails  

Conclusion

Finding a job that you have been dreaming about for years has its challenges. Even when you find an opening in some company, you still have to proceed with utmost caution and strategic planning to make sure you stand out in the eyes of the recruiters.

One simple way to do that is by sending the job application email at the proper time. Choosing the right day as well as the time of day to send the email can help you increase your chances of landing that job interview.

You can take this opportunity to stand out among other candidates which is sometimes all you need to convince the recruiter that you are the right person for the job.

Recruitment and Selection Strategies

Recruitment And Selection Strategies For The Modern Workforce You Should Know

Recruitment And Selection Strategies For The Modern Workforce You Should Know 1000 686 HRSG

What is Recruitment?

Recruitment is finding, selecting, employing, and onboarding qualified job candidates. It is the most essential aspect of human resource management (HRM). The entire process must be managed by skilled HR managers. A company’s recruitment and selection strategies increase its attractiveness to prospective employees.

Workforce trends are constantly shifting. Workers’ requirements, that is, their behaviors, wants, and needs, have also evolved. Traditional business practices cannot be applied to today’s workforce.

Companies must understand these changes and effectively adjust their recruitment strategies. Finding the right fit for a job is the most complex and critical part of any selection process.

The following are some hiring strategies that businesses should consider:

Culture Fit

When a company has a job opening, it usually considers the skills a potential employee must have for that position. Identifying the organization’s values, communicating them in job postings, and evaluating them when hiring, on the other hand, are all equally important.

These can be assessed through online personality tests prior to an interview or during the interview process, in which a prospective candidate is asked about his or her work ethic, personality, and characteristics. They can then be matched to the values of the company.

Attractive Job Posting

Regarding the required skill set, many job openings in the labor market are similar to those you need. Because of the accessibility, candidates have a large number of postings to choose from.

The company must therefore make their job posting appealing by mentioning the benefits of working for them and the skills they require. The candidate must understand why working for your company is preferable to working for another.

Businesses today use applicant-tracking systems to organize, collect, and filter job applications. This software is designed to help and improve the recruitment process. Several applications are sorted and filtered following the company’s criteria, saving valuable time and labor with a single click. Those applicants who do not meet the job requirements are sent an automated generic response, and the employer can then focus on those applicants who do.

Interview Procedure

The interview should be thorough and assess the candidate’s capabilities so that the interviewer knows whether the candidate is a good fit for the organization by the end. The questions should be well thought out and capable of assessing the employees’ goals, skills, and behaviors.

The interview can be conducted via video conferencing with a candidate in a different city than the organization. This is a good way to reach a larger pool of prospective employees who may be a better fit but need help to travel for an interview.

The entire process should be a two-way communication in which the employer provides information about the company while questioning the employee. The candidate should know the opportunities available while working for the aforementioned organization.

In addition, they must leave the interview with a clear understanding of the company to know if they will work here.

Digital Platforms

Job postings on digital or social media platforms enable a company to reach a larger audience. Candidates who had not previously applied may be enticed by the perks, higher pay, and other opportunities that the company provides that their previous employer did not.

Online marketing will draw attention to the job opening and bridge the gap between the employer and the employee.

Company Reviews

Prospective employees can look for information and reviews from previous employees of the organization to which they want to apply. The shared experiences will allow the applicant to learn about the company’s culture, working hours, workload, increments, and overtime pay.

Positive feedback from a company will encourage more people to apply, and the company may be able to find the best suitable match during this process

Is Recruitment Easier Now?

There is no simple answer to this question. Although recruiters receive more talented applicants from all over the world, the process has become more competitive.

While selecting the best-suited candidate, companies must also demonstrate their value to the prospective employee, i.e., why the employee would be better off working with the future organization rather than their current one.

As a result, when the right person is hired, he or she becomes an asset to the company, benefiting both the selector and the selected.

Equal Employment Opportunity

What You Should Know About An Equal Employment Opportunity

What You Should Know About An Equal Employment Opportunity 800 449 HRSG

What Is Equal Employment Opportunity?

The concept of equal employment opportunity relates to the idea that everyone is treated equally. When hiring, firing, or promoting someone, they should be treated fairly regardless of age, gender, religion, race, ethnicity, or other characteristics.

Any job applicant who advocates his interests throughout all employment-related choices has a right to equal opportunities. Regardless of differences, everyone is subject to the benefits of employment, such as performance-based incentives and awards, as well as the penalties for poor behavior. This comprises:

  • Hiring
  • Recruitment
  • Termination
  • Leaves/ Absences
  • Sense of style/ dress
  • Employment conditions
  • Any perks, promotions or bonuses being offered
  • Demotions and disciplinary measures

Importance and Benefits

  1. Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO)  supports a diverse culture and eliminates any possible hurdles to advancement. Organizations with EEO standards succeed in attracting a diverse pool of employees. These individuals offer the company various cultures, cognitive processes, and skills, promoting a pleasant collaborative work environment. On the other hand, organizations that are inflexible and not particularly inclusive have a difficult time finding the right talent. Due to their restrictive recruiting procedures, businesses frequently lose money and time owing to lousy hiring judgments.
  2. A diverse workforce means the company can access a broader range of ideas, experiences, skills, and talents. This allows for the growth of innovation, especially if you run an IT company that relies on continuous innovation. This also allows teams to make decisions that are more informed and become more focused, solution-oriented, and ultimately more productive.
  3. Purposefully and comprehensively applied EEO policies help enhance employees’ morale. This is essential as it contributes to developing a positive reputation for the company. Creating an inclusive team of individuals paves the way for a tolerant, open, and accepting company culture. Furthermore, a company’s commitment and EEO practice standards earn them a good reputation in their industry, gaining them a competitive advantage.
  4. Commitment from the top of the company’s hierarchy is required for effective EEO implementation. Why is it so crucial? It is critical because upper management has ultimate control and resources to achieve such a significant organizational change. Commitment from them entails the development and adoption of inclusive EEO policies, which will eventually set the foundation for the rest company. If upper management does not back or support this cause, only surface-level actions will be taken, often resulting in failure.
  5. Training programs are critical to ensuring that EEO practices are effectively executed and implemented. Employee education through training and mentorship contributes to the strengthening of EEO policies. This helps them understand that all employees are equally valuable to the company. This assists in confronting unconscious biases and cultivates the seed of a supportive, accepting, and inclusive workplace with a diverse and positive culture. As a result, incorporating EEO standards that cannot be moved is the key to successfully disseminating such a culture.
  6. The clientele and customer base expertise equally each employee contributes to the company’s growth and earnings. It is a positive indicator since it offers the business a competitive edge and eventually helps it become the clients’ top pick. EEO is favorable and advantageous to them since it aids in achieving their ultimate goal, which is for them to be the clients’ first option, making that their primary motive for most businesses.

Final Words

To sum up, it is critical to recognize that everyone has a right to equal opportunity in the workplace. Yes, it is not easy to implement. It is much simpler said than done. However, since the goal is a crucial requirement of the hour, leaders must be able to move in that direction. This is due to the importance of fair employment practices in maintaining our sense of community. Especially since the financial hardship and employment, losses brought on by the pandemic still exist in the post-pandemic era. Humans must learn to be kind and think about one another rather than acting in a thoughtless and insensitive manner.

Many people experience gender, racial, sexual orientation, and nationality stereotypes to some extent. It is frequently essential to actively overlook the past to assess individuals objectively. The emphasis must be on creating a lively and upbeat work environment, seeing past differences, and putting out teamwork and communal efforts to pursue shared accomplishments.
