Checking that your contract aligns with your offer letter ensures that you receive the benefits and entitlements promised during your hiring process
In the UAE, it is important to ensure that your labour contract matches the terms outlined in your offer letter.
Your labour contract is an important document that outlines the terms and conditions between you and your employer. It also specifies important details such as job responsibilities, working hours, salary, benefits, and termination clauses.
Regularly reviewing your contract helps you stay informed of any changes in your employment terms and prevents potential disputes. Most importantly, checking that your contract aligns with your offer letter or initial agreements ensures that you receive the benefits and entitlements promised during your hiring process, such as overtime pay, leave allowances, and end-of-service benefits.

You can access your employment contract online through the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (Mohre) website. If you already have a physical copy of your contract and simply want to check it online, you can also do so.
Here's how you can check your labour contract:
If you're unsure about your labour information, you can contact Mohre at 600590000. When you call, you'll need to provide your Emirates ID number for verification. Once confirmed, they will share all your labour contract details over the phone.
