Abu Dhabi, UAE: Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB), a leading Islamic financial institution, has introduced a new digital service that lets individual employers register and pay employees’ salaries through the ADIB Mobile Banking app, and corporate employers do the same through the Direct app. ADIB is one of the first banks to offer this service, which is fully aligned with the approved regulatory framework of the UAE’s Wage Protection System (WPS). This service was developed in collaboration with Al Etihad Payments (AEP) and the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MoHRE) to ensure full compliance with all national regulatory requirements. By integrating WPS, employers can now retrieve and verify employee data, validate salary information, and report paid and unpaid salary details with the required justifications. The solution also introduces inside-country employee verification and strengthens transparency, auditability, and regulatory reporting. The digital-first solution improves accuracy and offers employers greater compliance, visibility, and control. Specifically, the solution eliminates the need for physical documents and provides direct access to MoHRE databases through ADIB’s secure digital banking platforms. This initiative reinforces commitment to delivering Shari’ah-compliant, regulator-ready digital solutions across its personal, small- and medium-enterprises (SMEs), and corporate banking ecosystems. This new solution demonstrates how it is revolutionising the customer experience as part of its vision for 2035 to become the world’s most innovative Islamic bank.
