Payroll management in the UAE is not just about paying salaries; it means also adhering to the strict labour and wage laws in force under Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021, known as the UAE Labour Law, along with the Wage Protection System (WPS) implemented by the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation.
At Payrolls Middle East, our UAE payroll services guarantee that each and every payment is made on time, with full accuracy in compliance with legislation, and is hassle-free.
Payroll compliance: why it matters in UAE
Under the UAE’s labor laws, every company is bound to process payroll through WPS for transparency and timely payment of salaries. Non-compliance with such a system will attract fines, penalties, or suspension of new work permits. Having a professional payroll partner will definitely save one from such risks and facilitate smooth business operations.

How Payroll Is Calculated in UAE
In the UAE, some of the compulsory constituents that make up payroll calculation include basic salaries, allowances, deductions, and end-of-service benefits.
Formula Example for Gratuity:
For employees on unlimited contracts after 1 year of service:
- Gratuity = 21 days basic salary × years of service (for the first 5 years)
- Gratuity = 30 days basic salary × years of service (after 5 years)
