My company, already established in the Nederlands, wants to launch a website addressed to UAE users.
Our service puts companies in contact with possible clients. The companies will pay us on our website.

Hosting freelancers on a website for online services

0
Q: We are planning to set up an online service where we host event planning vendors.
Customers can then get in touch with these vendors through our site for their event planning needs.
I wish to know if I can host freelancers (who do not have a trade license) on this website, or is it illegal?

Drafting terms and conditions for a startup website

6
Q: Dears,
I'm currently working on a startup website which follows the Youtube model (pay users for their contribution) based on the effect of the contribution on the society and community.
I would like some help in writing the terms and conditions for the website. Do you advise that we draft the T&C and then it is reviewed by a legal team or should be written by a legal team from the beginning?
Could you give a rough figure or range on what to expect for the cost of such a service?

What does Cabinet Resolution No. 1 of 2022 mean with exempting supervisory roles from the provisions of the Labour Law? 0
Dear colleagues,
According to Article 15 of Cabinet Resolution No. 1 of 2022 (“Executive Regulations”), employees occupying supervisory roles are exempt from the provisions of the Labour Law and the Executive Regulations in relation to maximum working hours only if they possess powers equivalent to those of the employer.
Could you please clarify what is meant by "if they possess powers equivalent to those of the employer"?
Currently, we have heads of departments who report to the directors. Will they be eligible for overtime?
Also, those who have a POA to sign contracts will they be eligible?
Or, those who temporarily replace the CEO while he is out, will they be eligible?
