Hiring remote workers abroad

Dear Sir/Madam,

What does the UAE labor law say about hiring a remote worker employed in another country outside the UAE?

What are the terms and conditions and important points that a UAE-based company needs to be careful about when employing a worker based in another country and who will only work from that country?

Dear questioner,

There are several points, including which state law will be applied in case of dispute; the UAE or his country's law, the vacation system, confidentiality clauses, contract duration, and end-of-service reward.

You should write the contract with a legal advisor in the Emirates.
