What UAE families expect from domestic workers

Families expect a domestic worker to fit their household and handle the agreed tasks reliably, whether that is cleaning, cooking, childcare or care.

• Keeping the home clean and organised
• Laundry and general upkeep
• Cooking or meal help where needed
• Childcare or elderly support where needed

Agree the exact list in writing before the start date - every home shapes the role a little differently.

Skills and qualities to look for

Experience on a CV is a start, but these are the qualities worth testing in the interview and the trial:

• Relevant household experience
• Clear communication
• Reliable routine support
• Good references from past employers

What affects the salary

What you pay a domestic worker depends on experience, languages and whether the role is live-in or live-out. Full-time roles are agreed as a monthly salary.

Agree the figure directly with the candidate, confirm exactly what it covers - weekly day off, flights, accommodation - and put it in writing before the start date. A fair, clear package is the simplest way to keep a good worker long term.

A clear path from search to start date

1. Shortlist two or three domestic workers that match your role, location and budget.
2. Interview each candidate and ask for specific examples from previous homes.
3. Call references before you decide.
4. Agree duties, salary, weekly day off and start date in writing.
5. Sponsor the visa yourself or through a licensed Tadbeer centre, then begin with a short trial.
