Early ILOE subscribers: You are now eligible for the unemployment insurance payout

The scheme came into effect from January 1, 2023, which was when workers in the UAE’s private sector and federal government sector were eligible to subscribe to it for a monthly payment of Dh5 or Dh10, depending on their salary bracket.

The payout will be given for three consecutive months.

When can I receive the cash compensation? Once you have submitted the claim, Article 12 states that service providers licensed by the UAE’s Central Bank to provide the insurance policy are required to make the payment within two weeks.
