Frequently asked questions
What is a MOHRE labour contract?
It is the official employment contract registered with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation, defining salary, role, and terms for mainland employees.
What comes first, offer letter or contract?
The signed offer letter comes first and must match the final contract. MOHRE compares them, and differences cause rejection.
Can contract terms be changed later?
Yes, through a contract amendment registered with MOHRE, signed by both employer and employee.
Do free zone employees use MOHRE contracts?
No. Free zone employment contracts are registered with the respective free zone authority under its own rules.
How can I read my contract?
Contracts are bilingual. You can also retrieve your registered contract through MOHRE's online services — or ask us to pull and explain it.
