Abu Dhabi Misdemeanor Court has fined a private company AED 10 million for violation of fictitious employment.
The fine is for non-compliance with the Emiratisation regulations and decisions in private sector companies, and circumventing the achievement of Emiratisation targets by fictitiously appointing 113 citizens.
The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation detected serious violations in the company's Emiratisation procedures and referred the case to the Abu Dhabi Public Prosecution.
The investigation revealed that the company violated fictitious Emiratisations and was non-compliant with the policies of employing national cadres in the private sector according to the "Nafis" programme, which aims to enhance citizen participation in the private sector.
