Asking a potential employee for a security deposit. Is it legal?

Dear Questioner,

In the UAE, security deposits are typically only required from employees who are handling large sums of cash or who have access to sensitive company information.

HVAC technicians generally do not fall into this category.

Dear Client,

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will definitely assist you in this matter.

Be cautious if an employer requests a security deposit for a job in Dubai, and research the company's legitimacy.

Thanks & Regards,

Contact the parent company and confirm whether this is fake or real.

Dear Questioner,

No one will know if it is true or fake, as you are the one who dealt with them and not others, and what is true is that the law prohibits the employer from charging any amount from the employee.

Dear questioner,

Thank you for your query.

Please be informed that legitimate job offers would not require your payment for any services, such as a security deposit.

Please feel free to reach out by email for any assistance you may need relating to legal affairs.

Thank you!
