Comprehensive employee benefits programmes including group medical, life, disability and wellness cover. Structured to UAE's mandatory health insurance requirements and beyond.

Group Medical

Mandatory and enhanced group health insurance for your workforce — covering inpatient, outpatient, dental, optical and maternity benefits. We structure compliant plans that also deliver real value to employees.

🛡️

Employee Benefits FAQs

Common questions about UAE employee benefits.

Most UAE insurers will offer group health schemes for businesses with as few as two employees. Premiums are more competitive as group sizes increase. We work with businesses of all sizes — from start-ups with two staff to enterprises with thousands of employees — and access the best available terms for your group size.

Yes. It is common practice to structure group health and benefits schemes with different tiers — for example, basic mandatory cover for all staff, enhanced cover for managers, and premium cover for senior leadership. We design the grade structure and insurer submission to optimise cost while delivering meaningful differentiation.

We provide a dedicated account manager and a streamlined process for adding new joiners and deleting leavers throughout the policy year. Premium adjustments are typically made on a pro-rata basis at renewal. For larger groups, we can implement online HR portals that integrate directly with the insurer's enrolment systems.

Gulf Oasis manages renewal processes proactively — benchmarking your existing insurer against the market three to four months before renewal. If switching offers a better outcome, we manage the transition seamlessly, including health card replacement, employee communications and data migration to the new insurer.
