With the long weekend approaching for Eid Al Adha, many parents who employ helpers such as nannies to care for their children are wondering where the UAE law stands with relation to public holidays for domestic employees.
While both public sector and private sector employees are entitled to four paid days of leave for Eid Al Fitr in 2021, the laws covering domestic employees such as nannies, drivers and house cleaners are slightly different.
Of course every family has varying requirements and parents may choose to give their hardworking employees the same amount of time off as they themselves receive. However, it is important to be aware of the legal position so that parents can be sure that they are treating their helpers fairly and in accordance with the UAE law.
