More than 7,600 citizens working in Abu Dhabi’s public schools will benefit from this during their retirement. Abu Dhabi Government will spend more than Dh6.6 billion to implement the new pension rate, paying the difference between the current monthly deductions and the higher 80 per cent rate for the entire service period of eligible employees.
