New Emiratisation requirements
In order for Emirati nationals to be counted against the quota, employers need to ensure that they comply with all labour regulations and that they have furnished each UAE national with a work permit and employment contract, registered them with the applicable pension authority, and paid them through the Wages Protection System. Companies should bear in mind that existing Emirati employees pre-January 2023 will be disregarded when calculating the quota (although this may be subject to the employer’s existing number of Emirati employees and the composition of their workforce).
