UAE 2021 salaries steady with business offering up to 25% bonuses, survey finds – The National

Salaries in the UAE remain steady this year, with some businesses offering bonuses of up to 25 per cent for their top performers, according to Robert Half’s 2021 Salary Guide.

Employees mostly request incentives that support their development and performance while working from home, according to the recruitment consultancy. The most requested benefits include work-from-home policy, childcare support and subsidised training support, the study revealed.

In the UAE, multinationals are happy to enable remote working but some SMEs are resisting, which is putting off potential candidates for whom it is a priority perk, the recruiter said.
