Inspectors from the General Pensions and Social Security Authority (GPSSA) have been visiting offices across the UAE to “unconsciously” “correct” the “incorrect practices” of employers/entities. Such practices include registration and payment of contributions due from insured Emiratis.

The agency said the inspections were aimed at ensuring employees complied with all legal requirements set out in the pension and social security laws.

Inspectors have the right to enter the employer’s premises without prior notice to determine the nature of the proceedings taking place there. They can view documents and records related to the implementation of the provisions of the pension law and verify that UAE employees within the organization are registered within one month from the date of employment and are fully aware of their rights and obligations. They also ensure that the employer/entity provides GPSSA with its employee’s termination of service documentation and documentation within one month of the date of termination of service.

GPSSA affirmed the importance of strengthening partnerships and communications with employers/entities to protect the rights of insured Emiratis and their families. The aim is not to restore legal measures, but to raise awareness and correct practices so employers can avoid warnings.

“In order to be covered by GPSSA, individuals need to meet various requirements, some of which include a family booklet certifying that they are UAE nationals; they should be between the ages of 18 and 60 at the time of registration based on a medical report submitted by their entity; Physical fitness and fitness to work at the time. All medical procedures and registration steps need to be approved by GPSSA,” the agency said.

Emiratis working in the federal and government sectors, except in Abu Dhabi and Sharjah; and nationals and nationals working in the private sector, except in Abu Dhabi, in accordance with the provisions of the federal laws enforced by the authorities. “Entities whose principal headquarters are in any other emirate within the UAE are subject to the provisions of the Federal Pensions Law, including their branches in other emirates.”
