A recent survey by Cooper Fitch indicates that while Dubai's population grows, and the economy appears strong, salaries for expatriates are projected to remain unchanged in 2025. The influx of expats is creating intense job competition, which contributes to salary stagnation despite rising living costs. With expats making up about 87% of Dubai's population, the report suggests that a robust talent pool reduces the necessity for companies to offer higher salaries, potentially leading to economic disparities for expatriates as housing costs increase.
As more expats compete for jobs, salaries are set to remain flat in 2025, despite the significant increases in living costs in Dubai.
Cooper Fitch projects that salaries across the UAE will flatline in 2025, with an expected average increase of 0% amid rising population and housing costs.
