Manpower supply in Fujairah, and what the emirate asks of a supplier
Manpower supply in Fujairah is the deployment of workers employed and sponsored by a licensed supplier to a client's terminal, port, quarry, site or property in the emirate, at an agreed monthly, daily or hourly rate. The supplier carries the registered employment, the visas, the WPS wages and the insurance; the client directs the work. The same federal labour law applies as anywhere in the UAE.
Fujairah's demand is shaped by the coast and the mountains. The oil storage and bunkering terminals and the port run maintenance, shutdown and expansion programmes that want pipe fitters, scaffolders, welders' helpers, riggers' helpers and plant crews with the passes and inductions the terminals require. The free zone and the port need loaders, yard staff, drivers and warehouse crews. The Hajar mountains hold quarries and crushers, the city and Dibba have construction and facilities work, and the east coast resorts need housekeeping, stewarding and guest services staff by season.
Two things matter more here than in Dubai. Passes: terminal and port sites have their own approval and induction regimes, and a crew without them waits at the gate; tamdeed prepares the paperwork with you before mobilisation and confirms at the brief which approvals the client's site requires. And distance: most workers live on the other side of the mountains, so transport is scheduled and priced on its own line, or workers are based in the emirate for long programmes. Attendance is geofenced at the gate either way, so hours and monthly rates are billed from the record.
Manpower by trade, and the neighbouring emirates
Each trade page carries the grades, the checks and the rate lines; the east coast is supplied from the same bench as the rest of the UAE.

How a rate is built for Fujairah
The rate is the same set of lines as everywhere in the UAE: wage, government fees at cost, insurance, accruals, transport where needed, and administration. Distance is the line that moves most here: scheduled transport to a plant, a quarry or a resort site is a real cost and is shown on its own line rather than hidden in the wage.
Live pricing applies to one to ten workers; larger crews receive a custom charge sheet built from the same lines, with rate review points written in for long programmes.
Illustrative structure, not a tariff. Your rate sheet shows the exact lines and amounts for your site before you commit.
Build your charge sheet
Pick the grade, the site, the term and the hours, and watch which lines appear, which are at cost and which one is tamdeed's. No market rates, no bundled number.
Turns the statutory accruals into dirhams on your own assumption. tamdeed does not publish market wages; the wage on a real charge sheet is agreed with you by role and grade.

Illustrative structure, not a tariff. A real charge sheet carries the amounts against exactly these lines for your roles, site and term, and is approved in your portal before anyone moves.
Short cover is the same monthly cost divided by fewer hours, which is why an hourly rate looks higher and is not more expensive per month.

Questions, answered plainly
Do you supply crews to the Fujairah oil terminals?
Yes. Pipe fitters, scaffolders, welders' and riggers' helpers, painters and plant helpers are supplied for maintenance, shutdown and expansion programmes, with the terminal's pass and induction paperwork prepared before mobilisation. Approvals a specific terminal requires are confirmed at the brief, not assumed.
Can you supply shutdown crews billed on hours?
Yes. Shutdown and turnaround crews are billed on hours from the geofenced attendance record, with every worker on the same registered employment as a long-term crew.
Do you supply port and free zone workers?
Yes. Loaders, yard staff, forklift operators, drivers and warehouse crews are supplied to the port, the bulk terminals and the free zone, with zone pass paperwork handled.
Is transport to Fujairah included?
Scheduled transport across the mountains is shown as its own line on the rate sheet. For long programmes, workers based in the emirate reduce it.
Who is the legal employer?
tamdeed. Workers are employed on MOHRE-registered contracts, sponsored on residence visas and paid through WPS by tamdeed. They report to your site for the work.
How fast can a crew mobilise to Fujairah?
Bench workers already in the UAE can be at your gate within days of an approved rate sheet, subject to the terminal or port pass. Specialist roles or new visas take longer, and we say so at the brief.
Do you supply hospitality staff to the east coast resorts?
Yes. Housekeeping, stewarding, food and beverage and guest services staff are supplied to hotels and resorts in Fujairah and Dibba for seasons and ongoing operations.
What does manpower supply cost in Fujairah?
It depends on the role, the site, the engagement length, the shift pattern and the headcount. tamdeed itemises the wage, government fees at cost, insurance, accruals, transport and its own administration line on a rate sheet before you commit.
