UAE ministry and e& to provide wage protection services

The UAE’s Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) and e& money, the fintech arm of technology group e&, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to provide wage protection services via the e& money platform. This enables individuals to manage salary payments for domestic workers in line with applicable legislation and regulatory frameworks.

By leveraging MOHRE’s advanced technology, e& money aims to simplify salary transfers, reduce reliance on cash, and support the UAE government’s push towards a cashless economy.

Through this partnership, MOHRE’s Wage Protection System (WPS) API is integrated into e& money’s platforms, offering a secure and compliant way for individuals to disburse salaries. While WPS has traditionally served private sector employees, this new initiative extends its reach to domestic workers.

The API, or application programming interface, allows e& money’s app to securely communicate with MOHRE’s systems, ensuring high levels of efficiency and compliance.

The e& money app enables individuals employing domestic workers registered with MOHRE to access wage protection services through its platform. Once registered via the designated MOHRE services section within the app, users will automatically see the worker’s name and salary details, allowing for quick, hassle-free payments. Wage data is securely stored and documented through full integration with MOHRE systems, enhancing compliance and simplifying processes for both employers and workers.

Domestic workers receive an IBAN, a digital wallet and Mastercard prepaid card, driving financial inclusion among a largely unbanked population. e& money is also offering an introductory free card for up to two employees and guaranteeing the best exchange rate for international transfers, allowing domestic workers to meet all their financial needs through an affordable and secure financial super app.
