The Overtime Authorization Form is a crucial document used in UAE workplaces to manage and record overtime work in compliance with Federal Law No. 33 of 2021. This form serves as both a request mechanism and a documentation tool, ensuring that all overtime work is properly authorized, recorded, and compensated according to UAE labor law requirements. It helps organizations maintain accurate records of additional working hours, calculate appropriate compensation rates, and ensure compliance with maximum working hour restrictions. The form is particularly important given the UAE's strict regulations on overtime work, which mandate specific premium rates and maximum working hour limitations. Organizations use this document to track overtime patterns, manage labor costs, and maintain proper documentation for labor inspections and audits.
