Inspection-Ready Files

Contracts, WPS records, permits, and leave files organized exactly the way MOHRE inspectors expect them.

Overview

MOHRE inspections can happen at any time, and penalties for missing or non-compliant documentation accumulate quickly. Our compliance audit reviews every HR file against current requirements, then closes the gaps before an inspector finds them.

What Our Audit Covers

Employment contract registration, offer-letter alignment, WPS salary file accuracy, work-permit validity, leave and overtime records, gratuity accruals, and Emiratisation quota status for companies in scope.

Audit Review Checklist

MOHRE Standard
  • Contract Registration: Every employee holds a MOHRE-registered fixed-term contract matching the signed offer letter.
  • WPS Salary Files: Wage Protection System records match contract salaries, with no unexplained delays or shortfalls.
  • Work-Permit Validity: Current permits, Emirates IDs, and visa records for all staff with renewal tracking.
  • Leave & Overtime Records: Accurate accrual and payout documentation for annual leave, sick leave, and overtime.
  • Gratuity Accruals: End-of-service provisions calculated correctly on basic salary with clean audit trails.

Common Penalty Triggers We Prevent

Issues that most frequently result in fines or work-permit blocks:

  • Salary paid outside WPS or below the contracted amount.
  • Employees working under expired permits or mismatched job titles.
  • Missing Emiratisation reporting for companies with 50+ employees.

MOHRE Compliance FAQs

Inspectors typically request employment contracts, WPS salary records, work-permit files, and leave documentation. Companies that cannot produce organized, current records risk fines, work-permit suspension, or downgraded company classification. Our audit prepares you for exactly this scenario.
