Manpower supply in Sharjah, and how it usually goes wrong
Manpower supply in Sharjah is the deployment of workers employed and sponsored by a licensed supplier to a client's factory, workshop, warehouse or site 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.
Sharjah's demand is industrial and short-cycle: production lines that run two or three shifts, workshops in the Industrial Areas and Sajaa, plants in Hamriyah Free Zone and SAIF Zone, warehouses along the Dubai border, and construction across the emirate. Buyers often want daily-wage or hourly labour for a few weeks, and that is where the market goes wrong: informal suppliers move unregistered workers between sites for cash, and the client inherits the liability when an inspector or an accident arrives.
tamdeed supplies Sharjah on the same terms as everywhere else. Short engagements are billed on hours from the geofenced attendance record; long ones on a monthly charge sheet; every worker is properly employed either way. The portal holds the contract, the visa, the insurance and the hours, so a daily-wage crew has the same paper trail as a two-year one.
Manpower by trade, and the neighbouring emirates
Each trade page carries the grades, the checks and the rate lines; Ajman and Dubai are supplied from the same bench.

How a Sharjah rate is built
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. Hourly rates for short cover are the same monthly cost divided by fewer hours, which is why they look higher per hour and are not more expensive per month.
Live pricing applies to one to ten workers; larger production or project teams receive a custom charge sheet built from the same lines.
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.

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.

Hourly billing you can check against the gate
Every hour on the invoice is a check-in and a check-out at your site. Short-term labour in Sharjah has never had a paper trail like it.
Questions, answered plainly
Do you supply production line workers in Sharjah?
Yes. Production line workers, machine operators, packers and helpers are supplied to factories and workshops in the Industrial Areas, Sajaa, Hamriyah Free Zone and SAIF Zone, rostered for two and three-shift patterns with transport scheduled where the site needs it.
Can I get daily-wage labour in Sharjah?
Yes, as properly employed workers billed on hours or days from the geofenced attendance record. Every daily-wage worker is on a registered contract and a residence visa sponsored by tamdeed, so your site carries no employment liability for them.
What is the manpower hourly rate in Sharjah?
The hourly figure is a worker's monthly employment cost divided by the contracted hours, about 208 for a 48-hour week, and depends on the role, the length of the engagement, the shift pattern and transport. tamdeed shows the lines behind the rate so it can be compared with any other quote.
Are your workers licensed to work in Sharjah's free zones?
Supplied workers are employed and sponsored by tamdeed and deployed under the labour supply framework; the zone's own pass and induction requirements are prepared with you before mobilisation.
How do I know a labour supply company in Sharjah is licensed and compliant?
Ask for three things in writing: the commercial licence, the registered employment contract and WPS record of any worker sent to you, and the attendance record the invoice is built from. tamdeed publishes its licence number in the footer of every page, employs every worker on a MOHRE-registered contract paid through WPS, and shows the contract, the visa, the insurance and the hours in your portal. A supplier that cannot show those for a daily-wage crew is the risk this page describes.
How fast can a crew start in Sharjah?
Bench workers already in the UAE can be at your gate within days of an approved rate sheet. Specialist roles or new visas take longer, and we say so at the brief.
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.
Do you supply outside the industrial areas?
Yes, across the whole emirate including Al Khan, Muwaileh, Al Dhaid, Kalba and Khorfakkan, for construction, facilities, hospitality, retail and office roles as well as industrial ones.
What does manpower supply cost in Sharjah?
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.
