But why? They give you a certain amount, you should be able to do with it what you want right? You can't talk to someone? |
Re: Drat
This is a new one, I shall explain.
Housing allowance is and should be paid directly to you, not the landlord, or agent. Therefore, you should be able to reside where you desire. Speak to the agent who has found this job for you and confirm this, as once your out here its nigh on impossible to get anything changed. |

This isn't always the case - my accommodation is arranged by my employer directly with the landlord, I do not have the option to have it paid directly to me.

I agree, it's not a rule that it should be paid to you...

it's up to the employer really, Sarah I would seriously re think this you won't get anything in AD for your budget:(
=== Options 1: a candidate is free to stay outside hospital accommodation even on the first day of joining. Housing allowance for single status 2,000DHS, married 3,000 DHS.+water/electric ,transpo as well. After 3 months probation if recommended for permanent candidates can avail housing allowance as per contract. He/she can look for a flat and the hospital will pay direct for 1 yr.. If candidate not have the interest to avail the housing still the monthly allowance will add on to the salary ,electric,water,transpo. As per HAAD they will pay only housing inside Abu Dhabi as we are under HAAD. Is what the hospital have said. Basically you get the 100,00 if you live in AD but want anywhere else you only get 2,000 per month. Doesn't take a genius to work out which option is better. |

Can you please advise once candidates have completed the 3 month probationary period, they are allowed to rent accommodation in Dubai as well as Abu Dhabi.

So either the hospital will find you an apartment for 100k, but you have no choice in where it is going to be, or you get 24k and you can choose your own? Edit; I think I get it, sort of. Surely you could find something in AD for 100k? |
Re: Drat
I read it as either you can find a flat on AD and they'll pay up to 100,000 for it, or apparently HR will help you to find somewhere. However if you want to live outside AD, as I thought I might do, Then yo only get 24,000.
So has anyone got any idea on where to live in AD. The hospital is on the outskirts just off SZR. All hep gratefully recieved. |

If that's there attitiude it doesn't sound like they are going to be a good employer to work for. Vote with your feet - no money, no honey.

Re: Drat
Too true Blue Cat, I realise thats why they are doing it. Some stuff is coming up on dubizzle, my budget is 120k, maybe when hubby sorts a job might make up shortfall that way, just another thought!
