Thanks to simplified procedures and digitised services, more than 4.7 million residency and employment transactions have been done in the country from January to October this year, the authorities revealed on Friday.
This was made possible through the digital link between the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (Mohre) and the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security.
The two entities offer 35 common services — 23 for business owners and families employing domestic helpers, and 12 for private sector employers and employees.
Through the seamless connection between the two entities, residents and companies are able to complete transactions in minutes — boosting efficiency and ensuring data accuracy.
Out of the 4.7 million transactions, 1.2 million were on the issuance new contracts, residency permits for domestic helpers, changing employers, cancelling work permits and employment contracts, and absconding complaints.
The number of transactions related to private sector employers and employees exceeded 3.5 million. These included checking the entry date, cancelling a labour card, golden residency transactions, temporary work permits, part-time work permits, and others.
