The Abu Dhabi Misdemeanor Court has ruled to fine a private company Dhs10 million for non-compliance with the standards and controls of the decisions, regulating Emiratization in private sector companies, and circumventing the achievement of Emiratization targets by recruiting 113 citizens fictitiously.
The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (Mohre) monitored the company’s serious violations regarding Emiratization procedures, and referred the company to the Abu Dhabi Public Prosecution to investigate the incident of committing a violation of fictitious Emiratizations and non-compliance with the policies of employing national cadres in private sector according to “Nafis” programme, which provides benefits and privileges aimed at enhancing the participation of citizens in work in private companies.
Investigations revealed that the company had issued work permits for employees and registered them under the company without real employment, in order to circumvent the law and ministerial decisions regulating the achievement of the targeted percentage of citizens’ employment in private sector. Based on the investigation outcome, the Abu Dhabi Public Prosecution ordered referral of the violating company to the competent court, which issued a ruling convicting the company.
