Part-time job options in UAE

Are you worried about how you can supplement your income if you are facing a salary cut or are on an unpaid leave?

You can work part-time along with a full time one, based on the provisions in the UAE Labour Law.

You can work part-time after getting the work permit from Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MoHRE).

The part-time work permit is valid for one year and includes an application fee of Dh100 and an approval fee of Dh500.

You can work with another company-at the same time as working with their current employer- on a part-time basis for less than eight hours per day.
If you are on a family visa, you would need an NOC from your sponsor (husband/father). Such Work Permits can be issued to men and women bewtween 18 and 65 years of age.

As per Federal Decree Law No. 2 of 2007, if an expatriate is caught working for another company without an official permit, then a fine of Dh50,000 will be applied to the hiring company, in addition to other penalties in case of repeating the offence.

Emiratis, other GCC nationals and expatriate employees who are living in the UAE on a work visa, can take up a second job, upon getting a part-time work permit from MoHRE, which is valid for one year.
