Effects of resignation during probation
Hi.
I am on an unlimited contract as a project manager at a company in Dubai.
I resigned from my job during the probation period, as I had to leave the country urgently and couldn't work for more than three weeks of my notice period.
The company is asking me to pay them 45 days compensation as per my full salary and not my basic salary.
First, are they entitled to any payment from me? Secondly, could they ask for payment as per my full salary or only basic salary?
I appreciate any help on this issue.
Thank you.
The date of the employment visa will be considered for your probation.
If you do not have a visa there won't be a ban.
If you have a visa and if you did not complete one year of service, an automatic six months or one-year labour ban may be imposed by the Ministry of Labour upon request by your employer. No employment visa shall be issued to you until the period of the ban is completed.
If you have a limited contract: you must complete one-year of service and be liable to PAY compensation (45 days salary, not work) to make it up for early termination of the contract.
If you have an unlimited contract: you must complete one year of service and serve one month notice.
So since you left and you will get automatic ban why you need to pay? and for them to claim the compensation (45 days) they can file a case.
