Hi there,
I wonder if anyone would be so kind to help me out.
I currently have been offered a job in Dubai as a planner.
The offer includes accommodation and medical insurance.
Is this table I found on an internet site correct ? if not could someone fill what it cost’s now !
Monthly Costs ($/£)
Item Single Couple Couple with 2 Children
Housing (1) 900/600 1,050/700 1,200/800
Food (2) 450/300 750/500 1,050/700
Utilities (3) 225/150 300/200 450/300
Leisure (4) 450/300 450/300 600/400
Transport (5) 75/50 150/100 150/100
Insurance (6) 100/65 150/100 225/150
Clothing (7) 150/100 300/200 450/300
Totals 2,350/1,565 3,150/2,100 4,125/2,750
1. Rental costs for a one-bedroom apartment in a modern block, probably unfurnished, a two-bedroom apartment in a similar block and a two or three-bedroom apartment or a modest villa. Apartments might have air-conditioning included in the rent. Satellite television is probably provided but is unlikely to include all channels. A swimming pool and/or gym are usually provided.
2. Doesn’t include luxury food items or alcohol.
3. Includes electricity (and air-conditioning), water (and usually sewage if charged in conjunction with the water, as is normal) and an allowance for telephone charges.
4. Includes entertainment, dining out, sports, newspapers and magazines but not holidays (air fares are often included in work contract terms).
5. Includes running costs for an average family car plus third party insurance, petrol, servicing and repairs, but excludes depreciation and credit purchase costs.
6. Includes private health, travel, car and contents insurance. Note that property is rented, so building insurance is usually unnecessary.
Lots of clothing is unnecessary in the region’s hot climate. Office wear for men is a shirt and tie, except for formal occasions.
