About this product
Read the full description
UAE Employment Contract Checklist and Clause Guide is for the person who writes or reviews employment contracts for a UAE company and wants to know what a contract has to cover, what each clause is for, and what to ask a lawyer before it is signed. It does not give you a contract to sign. It gets you ready to brief a lawyer, and it catches the gaps between what you promised in the offer and what the contract says.
What is inside (four Word files):
- Employment Contract Checklist: ten parts from before you draft to final sign-off, covering parties, term and probation, pay and benefits, hours and leave, conduct, ending the contract, visa and permit costs, registration and signing
- Contract Clause Guide: 27 clauses (duties, probation, salary, overtime, leave, insurance, flights, visa costs, confidentiality, non-compete, notice, termination, gratuity, return of property, governing law and more). For each: what it does, what to decide, plain-English sample wording with placeholders, common mistakes and when to ask a lawyer
- Questions for Your Lawyer and MOHRE: organised by topic, with space for the answer, a decisions log and a list of documents to bring
- Offer-to-Contract Match Sheet: a line-by-line comparison to settle every mismatch before signing
Who it is for: owners of small and mid-size companies, HR officers, office managers and PROs who draft or check contracts, and anyone who has been handed a template and not told what it should say.
What it does not do: it does not state labour-law rules as certain. Where a rule matters (probation limits, notice, leave, overtime, end of service, non-competes, who pays visa costs), it names the topic and tells you to confirm with MOHRE, your free zone authority, your PRO or a lawyer. The one rule it states is the basis of gratuity (on basic wage) as in the official summary. It does not replace a lawyer, does not register contracts, and has no Arabic text. Sample wording is a starting point for review, not a final clause.
Requirements: Microsoft Word 2016 or later, or Google Docs. Page counts are estimated from word counts; the files were not laid out in Word.
