Ahmad in Dubai asks: I am an Indian. What is the minimum age legally required to get a job in the UAE?
The minimum working age in the UAE is 18 years, but a 15-year-old can work as per the Labour Law after obtaining written approval from his legal guardian and perhaps could do minor work during the day and work a maximum of six hours per day only.
