Employer registration with the General Pension and Social Security Authority (GPSSA) is a mandatory process for all companies in the UAE employing Emirati nationals. It ensures legal compliance with UAE federal labor laws and contributes to the social security and financial wellbeing of UAE National employees. At Smart Word, we make this process seamless, accurate, and fully compliant—helping employers register efficiently and avoid legal or financial risks. The registration involves submitting essential company and employee documents such as trade licenses, signed employment contracts, and Emirates IDs. Once registered, employers are required to contribute to the employee's pension—typically 14% from the employer and 6% from the employee's salary. These contributions build long-term financial security for Emirati employees in cases of retirement, disability, or death. By partnering with Smart Word, you demonstrate your organization's commitment to national workforce development and social responsibility. Our expert team ensures your registration is completed correctly, on time, and in accordance with all GPSSA regulations—so your business remains compliant and your employees are protected.
