UAE Labour Law Built In
30 days annual leave, 90 days sick leave, UAE public holidays, Eid allowances, and MOHRE-compliant leave policies are pre-configured for UAE businesses out of the box.
Apply and Approve on Mobile
Employees request leave from their phone in seconds. Managers approve or reject instantly from their mobile — anywhere in the UAE. The whole process takes under 2 minutes.
WPS Payroll Auto-Synced
Every approved leave is automatically reflected in that month's WPS payroll — unpaid leave deducted, leave encashment calculated, and salary slips updated without manual intervention.
A leave process your UAE employees and managers will actually use
End the paper forms, WhatsApp messages, and email chains for leave requests. XRERO gives every employee a self-service portal to check their balance, request leave in seconds, and receive instant notifications — while managers approve with a single tap on their phone.
Employee Self-Service Portal in Arabic and English
Every employee logs in to see their exact leave balance, submit new requests, view approved and pending requests, and check the team availability calendar — in Arabic or English, from any device.
Multi-Level Approval Workflows
Configure approval chains that match your UAE company structure — direct manager, department head, and HR sign-off for long annual leave. Requests escalate automatically if not actioned within your set response window.
Overlap and Coverage Conflict Alerts
XRERO automatically warns managers when two or more team members request overlapping dates — preventing critical roles from being left uncovered and flagging coverage risks before they are approved.
Every UAE leave type pre-configured and MOHRE compliant
UAE Labour Law has specific rules for every leave type — annual leave accruals, sick leave tiers, maternity leave, hajj leave, and study leave. XRERO comes pre-loaded with all UAE-compliant leave policies so you never need to configure them manually or risk an MOHRE audit finding.
Annual Leave Days
Accruing monthly from day one per UAE Labour Law Federal Decree No. 33 of 2021.
Sick Leave Days
Tiered: 15 full pay, 30 half pay, 45 unpaid as required by UAE law.
Hajj and Religious Leave
30 days unpaid Hajj leave once per service — pre-configured per UAE Labour Law.
UAE Public Holidays
Official UAE public holidays auto-blocked annually including Eid Al Fitr, Eid Al Adha, and National Day.
Always know who is in, out, or on leave across your UAE teams
XRERO's team availability calendar gives managers and HR a live view of exactly who is working and who is on leave — across every department, every UAE location, and every day of the year. Plan project staffing, client meetings, and critical deadlines around actual team availability with confidence.
Live Team Availability Calendar
See all approved and pending leave across your UAE team on a monthly calendar view — colour-coded by leave type, department, and location. Plan resource allocation around actual availability, not assumptions.
UAE Public Holiday Auto-Calendar
UAE official public holidays are automatically blocked in the leave calendar every year — including Eid Al Fitr, Eid Al Adha, Islamic New Year, National Day, and others. No manual updates required when holiday dates are announced.
Minimum Staffing Level Enforcement
Set minimum coverage rules — for example, at least 3 sales agents must be present at all times. XRERO automatically blocks leave approvals that would breach your minimum staffing levels for any team or department.
Leave approved — payroll updated automatically
Because XRERO Time Off is built into the same ERP as your HR and payroll modules, every leave approval is immediately reflected in that month's WPS salary run. Unpaid leave is deducted, leave encashment is calculated, and salary slips are updated — no manual intervention, no calculation errors.
Automatic Unpaid Leave Deductions
Unpaid leave is automatically calculated as a daily rate deduction from that month's WPS salary. The finance team sees the adjusted amount in payroll before approving the salary run — transparent, accurate, and fully auditable.
Leave Encashment on Resignation
When an employee resigns, XRERO automatically calculates accrued but unused annual leave days and adds the encashment amount to the final settlement payment — fully compliant with UAE Labour Law gratuity and settlement rules.
Leave Liability Reporting for Finance
Get a real-time report of your total outstanding leave liability in AED — the value of all accrued but untaken annual leave across every UAE employee. Essential for accurate financial reporting and audit readiness.

What UAE HR Teams Say About XRERO Time Off
"Before XRERO we processed leave requests through WhatsApp and Excel. Mistakes were constant and we were always worried about MOHRE compliance. Now every leave type, every accrual, and every public holiday is handled automatically. Our HR team saved 2 full working days per month."
Hamad Al-Shamsi
HR Manager, Gulf Retail Group Dubai
"The WPS payroll integration is what makes XRERO Time Off stand apart. Unpaid leave deductions appear in the payroll run automatically. Leave encashment for resigned employees is calculated instantly. Our finance team no longer recalculates anything manually. Zero errors since we went live."
Saeed Al-Nuaimi
Finance Director, Apex Trading Abu Dhabi
"We have 3 offices across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah. The team availability calendar shows me exactly who is in across all three locations in real time. The minimum staffing rules mean I never accidentally approve leave that leaves a branch short. Complete peace of mind."

COO, Emirates Services Group
