A practical, applied certification covering Federal Decree Law No. 33 of 2021, the 2025 amendments, MOHRE practice, and the contracts and disputes you'll handle in real life. Built for HR professionals, business owners, and in-house counsel who need to be right, not just informed.
From HR generalists to CHROs — anyone responsible for compliance, contracts, terminations, or employee relations in the UAE.
SMB founders and entrepreneurs who need to handle their own employment contracts, disputes, and end-of-service correctly without an in-house legal team.
Lawyers and legal advisors new to the UAE or refreshing their knowledge of the post-2021 framework and recent amendments.
Compliance, audit, and risk professionals responsible for ensuring labour law compliance across UAE operations and free zones.
Each module pairs the legal framework with real case studies from the UAE — actual MOHRE rulings, real contract disputes, and the kinds of decisions you'll be asked to make at work the following Monday.
The structure of Federal Decree Law No. 33 of 2021, the 2025 amendments, the relationship between MOHRE and the courts, and how UAE employment law differs from common law jurisdictions.
Fixed-term contracts, probation, contract types, mandatory clauses, non-compete enforceability, and the most common drafting mistakes that create exposure later.
WPS compliance, gratuity calculation under the new framework, the savings scheme alternative, and how to handle salary changes, allowances, and bonuses correctly.
Annual leave, sick leave, parental leave, the new flexible and remote work arrangements, overtime rules, and the practical edge cases that cause disputes.
Termination for cause, without cause, summary dismissal, redundancy procedures, notice periods, and how to terminate cleanly without ending up in front of the labour court.
The complaint process, conciliation, the new judicial labour committee, how cases actually unfold, and what employers and HR teams should do at each stage.
The employment frameworks across DIFC, ADGM, JAFZA, and DMCC; Emiratisation quotas and Nafis; visa categories, work permits, and the freelance permit landscape.
A full-day workshop reviewing real (anonymised) UAE employment cases, drafting exercises, and a final assessment leading to your KHDA-accredited certificate.
Labour law in the UAE is moving fast. The companies that get it right will be the ones whose HR teams understand it deeply — not the ones with the prettiest policies.
— Lead instructor
There are dozens of UAE Labour Law courses. Most teach the law as it was written. Ours teaches it as it's actually applied — with real MOHRE cases, real contract problems, and a continuous-update model so you don't go stale six months after the certificate.
Every concept is taught through real (anonymised) UAE employment scenarios. You learn by working through the kind of decisions you'll face at work.
When MOHRE issues new guidance or the law changes, you get an alumni update. Your knowledge stays current — for life.
Caps at 18 people. You can ask the messy, specific questions about your actual situation and get real answers, not generic textbook responses.
You leave with editable contract templates, a termination checklist, a gratuity calculator, and a MOHRE-process flowchart. Use them on Monday.
If your question isn't here, talk to an advisor — fifteen minutes, no commitment. We'll give you a straight answer about whether this program is the right fit for you.
Reserve your seat in the next cohort, or book a 15-minute call with an advisor to figure out whether this is the right program for you.
