Question:

Do I need health insurance for my domestic worker in the UAE?

Answer

As a sponsor of a domestic worker, you are legally required to provide health insurance coverage for them. Domestic workers include individuals employed as housemaids, private coaches, gardeners, nannies/babysitters, and family chauffeurs. These workers play a crucial role in supporting households and families, and it is essential to ensure they are adequately covered in case of any medical emergencies or situations. The minimum level of cover required by law is the Essential Benefits Plan (EBP), which specifies the basic level of protection for all residents and domestic employees. As the sponsor, you are responsible to enroll your domestic worker or maids under this mandatory health insurance.
