Questions
Where do the figures come from?
From published salary guides: Michael Page UAE 2026, Robert Walters Middle East 2026 (UAE tables), Hays GCC 2025 and Cooper Fitch UAE 2025. Each figure shows its guide and page.
Why do the guides disagree?
They measure different things: Robert Walters gives basic salary only, Hays the total fixed package, Cooper Fitch basic plus fixed allowances. So each guide is shown on its own and never averaged with another.
Why can't I find my job?
The guides cover corporate roles (finance, HR, tech, engineering, sales, legal, procurement, banking). Nursing, teaching and hospitality aren't in any guide we read, so we show no figures for them.
Are Emirati salaries included?
Yes, the Hays guide has tables for UAE nationals in the private sector and in the Abu Dhabi and Dubai governments; they appear under the job when present.
