Struggling to Scale Your Ras Al Khaimah Workforce Fast Enough?

Ras Al Khaimah’s economy is built on heavy industry — quarrying, cement, and building materials manufacturing sit alongside a growing base of RAKEZ free zone businesses and port-linked logistics through Saqr Port. These are industries where labour demand can spike around a single large order, shipment, or production run, faster than in-house hiring can respond.
Here’s what RAK businesses tell us before they partner with Ontime:
  • “Our quarry or plant needs additional labour for a production run, but recruitment takes too long to keep pace.”
  • “We’re a RAKEZ-based business and don’t want to build a full internal HR/recruitment function for a lean team.”
  • “We need workers who are already visa-compliant and ready to start, not candidates we have to sponsor from scratch.”
  • “Managing WPS payroll for a workforce that scales up and down with project demand is a constant admin burden.”
  • “We need short-term labour for a shipment deadline or construction milestone, not a permanent hire.”
On-demand labour supply is how RAK’s industrial and free zone operators solve this without adding permanent headcount.

What is On-Demand Labour Supply — and Why Does It Matter in Ras Al Khaimah?

On-demand labour supply is a licensed workforce service where businesses hire pre-screened, visa-compliant workers for short-term, project-based, or seasonal assignments — without taking on permanent employment obligations. In the UAE, this service must be provided by a company holding an official On-Demand Labour Supply licence issued by MOHRE.
Ontime was the first company in the UAE to receive this licence, issued in 2011, and has since deployed over 160,000 workers across construction, logistics, facilities management, and manufacturing.
