UAE Labour Law & Employment-related services | Dubai law firm

UAE Labour law is a federal legislation applicable to all emirates of the UAE, enforced by the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, with litigations adjudicated by the Federal and Local Courts of the UAE.

Labour Law covers all aspects of employer-employee relationships in the UAE, be they UAE nationals or expatriates. The correct application of these laws is the key to the stability and integrity of society. Trade unions for the protection of labor rights are unheard of in the UAE.
