Why ZEO in UAE
Built for how the UAE works
WPS ready
Creates the Central Bank SIF file with your employer ID and routing codes. Some banks want their own layout, and those are included too.
Emirates ID and visas
Each employee file holds the Emirates ID, labour card, MOHRE contract, visa UID and file number, and HR is alerted before anything expires.
Gratuity and final settlement
Gratuity follows Federal Decree-Law 33 of 2021. Leave salary and loan recovery go into the same final settlement.
HR and payroll compliance
