Sharjah has extended the probation period for new government employees from six to nine months under revised human resources regulations.
An additional three-month extension may be approved by the hiring department and will apply from the date of appointment.
The changes aim to give Emiratis more time to prove their capabilities while supporting employment for citizens, including people of determination and children of Emirati mothers.
New internal committees and organisational structures are also being implemented across departments to enhance efficiency, with a focus on fairness, inclusivity, and alignment with the Ruler’s humanitarian vision.
