Payroll, HR and data
Last updated 14 Nov 2026
The Wage Protection System (WPS) is the UAE system through which private-sector employers pay salaries via an approved bank, exchange house or agent, so that the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation can confirm wages are paid in full and on time.
Each month the employer sends its agent a Salary Information File (SIF) listing every employee's pay, together with the funds. The agent pays the employees and reports the payments to MOHRE.
Late or incomplete WPS payments can lead to penalties and restrictions on the company's labour transactions.
Civova produces the SIF from an approved payroll run, with fixed and variable pay split the way WPS reports it.
