Dubai workers enjoy highest take-home salary in the world

Dubai takes the first spot on the list of countries where workers get to take home 100 per cent of the total income earned.

That is according to a report by the PwC UK, which placed Dubai above the likes of Hong Kong, Singapore and New York.

Owing to a lack of income tax or social security payments for non-nationals in Dubai, any compensation amount awarded to employees are received in full.

This unique framework has long attracted high-income individuals and multinational corporations to set up shop in Dubai.
