Protect your privacy and safety

Do not enter passwords, passport or ID numbers, bank details, medical records or confidential documents. Your description is sent to an AI provider to prepare the answer. GulfWorkHub does not save it automatically. If you sign in and explicitly choose Save to my profile, the problem, answer and useful links are stored in your private account.

Describe your problem

No account is required. You can ask in your preferred language.

72 language and dialect options are available. Speech recognition and voice quality vary by language, accent, microphone and device; some options are best-effort.
Include useful dates, what you already tried and what result you need. Keep names and identifying details out.
LIVE TWO-WAY AI VOICE

Talk through your problem

Speak naturally in your preferred language and hear the assistant reply. You can ask follow-up questions or interrupt while it is speaking.

AI-generated speech is not a human voice. Speech recognition and pronunciation vary by language, dialect, accent and device. For important dates, amounts or legal terms, confirm the text transcript; use the text Problem Solver for source-linked checks.

Languages I may mix while speaking (select all that apply)

This is a recognition hint, not a restriction. Select up to 8 languages you may use in the same sentence. Your answer language is chosen separately above. Leave all unchecked for unrestricted automatic recognition.

4 languages selected (maximum 8).

Choose your country, answer language and spoken-language mix, agree to the audio notice, then start.

Live audio is processed by the AI provider. GulfWorkHub does not record or store the call automatically. If you choose Save conversation, only its text is stored in your profile; audio is never saved. Do not share passwords, ID numbers, bank details or medical records. For current laws or official deadlines, use the text Problem Solver for source-linked checks.

Your question is not saved automatically. Choose “Save to my profile” to store the problem, answer and useful resources in your private account.

Employee support centre

AI tools to understand employment rights.

Prepare a clear, country-specific question about workplace rights, understand contract wording and organise the facts before contacting an authority or adviser.

A guided assistant for GCC employment questions

Choose your country, worker category and issue. The tool creates a structured prompt that you can copy into ChatGPT or another AI assistant to request an explanation with official legal sources.

Protect your personal informationDo not enter passport numbers, national IDs, Iqama / QID / CPR / Civil ID numbers, bank details, passwords, medical records or other identifying information. Use initials or placeholders and remove employer-confidential material.

Build your employment-rights question

Your entries stay on this page. Nothing is sent to GulfWorkHub when you generate the prompt.

Helpful facts: approximate dates, contract type, length of service, salary components and what response you have received. Do not include identifying details.
Important: This employment-rights helper prepares a structured research prompt. For general problems, use the new AI Problem Solver above. It does not determine legal liability or file complaints.

Your AI research prompt

Generate a prompt, review it, then copy it into your preferred AI assistant.

Official sources

Where to verify your rights and raise a concern.

Select your country's official government source. Procedures and eligibility can differ by worker category.

Employment rules can differ for domestic workers, public-sector employees, free zones, seafarers, special regimes and GCC nationals. Check the latest law and your contract. For urgent safety, violence, trafficking, detention, retaliation or imminent immigration deadlines, contact the relevant authority, local emergency service or consulate promptly.

    About GulfWorkHub

    Built to help people solve everyday problems.

    From work and career questions to documents, learning, money and digital tasks, GulfWorkHub helps you find practical next steps and useful resources.

    What is GulfWorkHub?

    GulfWorkHub is a public problem-solving and professional resource platform for individuals across the GCC. It is not an internal company HR management system or a government service.

    Are these calculators official government calculators?

    No. GulfWorkHub is an independent educational resource. The estimates are based on the statutory baseline described on each calculator and are not an official determination by a ministry, court or social insurance authority.

    Why can my actual entitlement be different?

    The result may change because of contract terms, sector-specific rules, wage definitions, unpaid absence, service interruptions, termination circumstances, collective agreements, special worker categories or later legal amendments.

    Does the website store my salary or employment dates?

    Calculator inputs run in your browser. If you create an account, your email and selected profile preferences, favourite tools and recent tool names are stored in the connected authentication and database service. Do not store sensitive employee records or identity, financial or medical data. Read the Privacy Notice before creating an account or using AI features.

    Can businesses use these results for final settlement?

    Use them as an initial cross-check only. Before processing payroll or a final settlement, verify the applicable law, official system record, employment contract, wage history and any required approvals.
