The launch of the gratuity calculator app in the UAE

All employees are entitled to end of service benefit under UAE Labour Law but this can be a headache to calculate. You may have seen that Abu Dhabi resident Glen Ferris has, this week, launched a free app on iOS to help resigning employees to figure out what they are owed.

The app is already proving very popular as is the importance of a robust end of service gratuity scheme for all UAE companies.

We have recently seen a significant uptake in end of service gratuity schemes being structured in the Channel Islands and similar "pensions" offerings being launched by our UAE corporate clients.

Click here for our brief factsheet on how the schemes work and why they are so important.
