What is Probation Period (UAE)?

A trial employment phase in the UAE, limited to a maximum of 6 months under Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021, during which either party can terminate with 14 days' notice.

Why it matters in hiring

Probation Period (UAE) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
