How to hire a domestic worker in Abu Dhabi

To hire a domestic worker in Abu Dhabi, filter the verified directory, shortlist two or three profiles, interview them and check references, agree the duties and salary in writing, then sponsor the visa yourself or through a licensed Tadbeer centre and start with a short trial.

Duties and responsibilities of a domestic worker

A domestic worker supports the household across cleaning, cooking and family care, with the exact mix agreed with you before the start date.

  • Keeping the home clean, tidy and organised
  • Laundry, ironing and general upkeep
  • Cooking or meal help, depending on the role
  • Childcare or elderly support where needed
  • Errands and day-to-day household tasks

Agree the final list in writing. Every home defines the role a little differently.

What to ask during the interview

Put these questions to each candidate - the answers tell you more than a CV does.

  • What did your daily tasks look like in your last home?
  • Which parts of the job are you strongest at?
  • Are you comfortable with the hours and type of role we need?
  • How do you organise a busy day?
  • Why did you leave your last position?

How the hiring process works

  1. Shortlist candidates

    Filter the directory and pick two or three domestic worker profiles that fit your needs, location and budget.

  2. Interview and check references

    Meet each candidate, ask about their experience, and contact previous employers before you decide.

  3. Agree the terms in writing

    Confirm duties, salary, day off and start date in writing, so expectations are clear from day one.

  4. Sponsor the visa

    For a full-time domestic worker, sponsor the visa yourself as the employer through private sponsorship, or use a licensed Tadbeer centre to handle it for you.

  5. Start with a trial

    Begin with a short trial period to make sure the domestic worker is the right fit before committing long term.

Live-in, live-out or part-time

The work type decides the cover you get, the cost, and how the visa is handled. Start from how many hours you really need, and when.

Full-time live-in

All-day help and overnight cover

The worker lives in your home and is on hand for most of the day. In most homes, the home stays maintained across the day and one person learns where everything goes. Plan for a private room, fair rest hours and a fixed weekly day off.

Full-time live-out

Set daytime hours, private evenings

The worker comes in each day and heads home in the evening. In most homes, cleaning and upkeep happen in set daytime hours while your evenings stay private. It can cost a little more per hour, but you keep your space to yourself.

Part-time

A few hours or specific days

The lightest, most flexible option. In most homes, a few cleaning visits a week keep things in order - the lightest, most flexible option. Part-time and hourly help should be arranged through a licensed agency, never informally, so the worker stays legal and covered.

Hiring in Abu Dhabi: what's different

Abu Dhabi families often lean toward longer-term routine fit and stability. For a domestic worker, that shapes whether live-in or live-out makes more sense, and how fast you should move on a strong profile.

Important: Employers must assess the worker's background, experience, confidence, and overall suitability before hiring. Background verification and final hiring decisions remain the employer's responsibility. Our platform provides access to candidate profiles registered on the platform and basic profile verification only.
