This Short Employment Contract template is designed for use in the United Arab Emirates when establishing new employment relationships or formalizing existing ones. It provides a condensed yet comprehensive framework that complies with Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 and related employment regulations. The document is particularly useful for small to medium-sized businesses seeking a straightforward employment agreement, or for positions where a more elaborate contract is unnecessary. It contains all mandatory provisions required by UAE law while maintaining simplicity and clarity. The template can be customized for both limited and unlimited term employment relationships and is suitable for use in both mainland UAE and free zone establishments, provided specific free zone regulations are incorporated where applicable.
