Expat secretaries to be allowed new positionsDubai: Expatriate secretaries will be able to continue working for their employers as long as the title and nature of their positions are adjusted, said a senior labour official. Dr Khalid Al Khazraji, Undersecretary of Labour, said that although secretarial positions were to be emiratised, employers were being given the option to keep their former expatriate secretaries as long as they were given alternative positions. "There is a need for flexibility in implementing the rules. The idea is to encourage companies to employ UAE nationals," he said. However, he added that secretarial positions were exclusively reserved for UAE nationals. A ministerial decision which came into effect on June 24 requires all secretarial positions to be emiratised. read more. Parents sceptical of school fee insurance programmeDubai: Eight out of ten parents have shrugged off an education insurance programme launched by a school group saying that if it really wants to help pupils and their parents it should first try to get their tuition fees decreased. The initiative, launched in the Global Education Management Schools (GEMS) group, is entirely optional and guarantees a child's education in the event of death or permanent disability of a family's main wage earner. Known as the GEMS Education Protection Programme (GEPP), it is said to be the first of its kind in the UAE education market. Coverage for the insured family member is valid worldwide. Uniquely, the nominated parent does not need a medical check-up or even to show proof of employment. On the basis of a fully refundable deposit, a child will receive free tuition until the completion of his/her schooling or 20th birthday. read more.
