Dubai: If you’re a working married man, how would you like it if your stay-at-home spouse were to get a salary equivalent to 25% of your pay?
And yes, that’s in addition to your own salary. In reality, it’s like a pay raise. Aries, a UAE-based marine engineering services firm, is doing just that a 25% pay raise, but directly credited to the wife of each employee who qualifies in the scheme (not offered to newcomers). The gesture is unique.
It s a token recognition for the role stay-at-home parents play, which includes an endless amount of demands and to-dos as a tutor, negotiator, nurse, party planner, private chef, caregiver, driver, laundry service, ironing service, house cleaner, counsellor, among others.

When the Sajan family decided to move from their six-bedroom villa on Dubai’s The Palm and build their dream home at the exclusive Emirates Hills neighbourhood, they knew they had set themselves up for quite the task – even for a family in the construction business.
“We loved the villa on The Palm and enjoyed the location by the sea with our own private beach. But it was a ready-made villa, and we wanted to build something that was our own, something tailor-made for us,” explains Adel Sajan, managing director of Danube Group, best known for its building materials.
