Statutory Compliances UAE

Compliance Made Simple

In the UAE, employers are required to follow statutory laws designed to safeguard employees and promote fair workplace practices. These laws span across contracts, wages, working hours, leave entitlements, insurance, and end-of-service benefits. Staying compliant is not just a legal necessity but also enhances employer credibility and builds trust with employees.

Wage Protection System (WPS)

A core requirement for all companies in the UAE is participation in the Wage Protection System (WPS). This system ensures that employees are paid accurately and on time through UAE Central Bank–approved channels. Employers must generate regular WPS files and reports that match payroll data with Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) standards. BizHRS makes this process seamless by enabling automated WPS reporting, reducing errors and helping organizations avoid penalties.

Mandatory Insurance & Employee Benefits

Every employer must provide mandatory health insurance coverage to their employees, in line with UAE law. Additionally, end-of-service gratuity payments must be calculated and settled when an employee completes their tenure. These provisions are legal obligations and critical to employee well-being. Automated tracking with BizHRS ensures businesses remain fully compliant with these laws.

Documentation & Record Keeping

Employers in the UAE must maintain accurate and up-to-date employee records, including passports, Emirates IDs, visas, labor contracts, and insurance policies. Keeping track of renewals and expirations is essential to avoid compliance breaches. With BizHRS, employers can securely upload documents, and the system automatically sends reminders for expiry and renewal dates — ensuring zero lapses in compliance.

The pop-up has fields for "Visa Name," "Visa Number," "Visa Country," "Start Date," "End Date," and a file upload button. The main screen behind the pop-up shows a table with columns for "Visa Title," "Visa Country," "Start Date," and "End Date," which are used for employee document management.

Leave, Working Hours & Other Statutory Provisions

UAE labor law also defines clear entitlements for employees, such as annual leave, maternity/paternity leave, sick leave, and public holidays, alongside regulations on working hours, overtime, and rest days. Employers are legally bound to honor these provisions, and failure to do so can result in penalties. BizHRS helps organizations by aligning leave and attendance policies with UAE statutory laws, ensuring fair treatment and full transparency.
