Put it down to experience

Hooray!

Today The Khaleej Times Online published welcome news to managers throughout the UAE. It reports Humeid bin Demas, Ministry of Labour assistant undersecretary, as stating:

"Any senior staff in an administrative position, who has spent several years in the UAE, will be exempt from having to submit attested copies of their academic qualifications, while renewing their labour contract."

This extends to journalists, technicians, electricians, foreman. However,academic or technical degrees and certificates will still be required for certain professions such as doctors, engineers, accountants, pharmacists and lawyers etc.

Comforting to know.
