Working in DMCC

HR software for DMCC businesses

DMCC businesses operate with lean teams, high staff turnover and licensing through the zone authority. Your HR system needs to handle free-zone employment terms, Wage Protection System filings for the bank, and end-of-service gratuity accrual under federal rules. We've built Hubb People to work at your scale without enterprise overhead.

Every project is a fixed quote with a clear timeline and clear milestones. You own the work and the accounts outright when we're done — no lock-in, and nothing you can't take with you.

Free-zone employment rules without the manual spreadsheets

Your staff work on DMCC-issued visas under free-zone employment terms. Your payroll, leave policies and gratuity obligations sit outside the standard mainland regime. Hubb People handles the specifics: leave accrual and approval, end-of-service gratuity calculation on the federal formula, and export of salary data for Wage Protection System filing to your bank. Employee records, contracts and documents stay in one place. Self-service access lets your team check their own details, request leave and see their balances. No separate tools. No manual filings to MOHRE portals—those sit outside the platform. What stays inside is the data you need to run payroll correctly.

Performance, recruitment and cases as your team grows

DMCC traders and SMEs hire fast. Hubb People tracks your recruitment pipeline from job posting to hire, manages performance reviews and personal development plans, and logs employee-relations cases with a full audit trail if discipline or investigation becomes necessary. Your team sees their own performance feedback, goals and development plans through self-service. When staff turnover is high and your headcount shifts, reporting on leave taken, performance ratings and turnover gives you sight of what's actually happening across your operation. Multi-company tenancy means each trading entity or subsidiary runs as a separate tenant with its own branding, policies and data—useful when you operate multiple legal entities through the zone.

Payroll runs and WPS uploads without the finance-system detour

Your payroll needs to be accurate and on time. Hubb People generates payslips, calculates end-of-service gratuity accrual month by month, and exports the Wage Protection System Salary Information File ready to upload to your bank. You do not need to export to spreadsheets, rebuild in accounting software and re-export again. Compliance with WPS deadlines and salary protection obligations stays under control. The platform sits outside general-ledger and finance-system integration—those sit in your ERP. Hubb People is your HR and payroll engine for DMCC operations, handling the mechanics that keep your people paid and your filings on track.

Questions

HR software in DMCC — common questions

Do you handle DMCC visa sponsorship and work-permit filing?

No. Visa sponsorship and DMCC portal administration stay with your HR team and the zone authority. Hubb People holds your employee records and contracts—the data you need to support those applications—but does not file or integrate with DMCC systems directly.

Can the system switch employees between free-zone and mainland employment law?

No. If an employee moves between DMCC and the mainland, or between DMCC and a separate DIFC or ADGM entity, you set up a new employment record under that jurisdiction's rules. The system does not automatically apply different legal frameworks—you configure them per company tenant.

How does end-of-service gratuity work in the platform?

Hubb People calculates gratuity accrual each month using the federal formula and shows the running total on your employee records. When someone leaves, the system shows what is owed. Final settlement and payment processing happen outside the platform.

Can we use it across multiple DMCC legal entities?

Yes. Multi-company tenancy lets each entity run as a separate tenant with its own employee records, payroll, policies and data. Useful if you operate multiple trading operations or subsidiaries within the zone.

What happens with our WPS filing obligations?

Hubb People exports the Wage Protection System Salary Information File from payroll runs, ready to upload to your bank on the proper schedule. The system holds the data; your bank processes the compliance submission.
