The United Arab Emirates is not an island but a federation of seven emirates, with Dubai and Abu Dhabi offering the largest concentration of hospitality, tourism, restaurant and hotel jobs. The culture blends Emirati traditions with a highly international workforce; modest dress, courtesy and respect for Islamic customs are important. Lifestyle options range from beaches, desert activities and shopping to excellent dining and a busy social scene, although summer temperatures are extremely high. Most foreign employees need employer-sponsored residence and work visas; the employer normally arranges medical testing, Emirates ID processing and work authorization. Relocation packages may include accommodation or an allowance, transport, medical insurance and flights. Employees should confirm contract terms, probation, working hours, gratuity, leave and housing costs before moving. Public transport is good in major cities, while accommodation can be expensive.
