Hello, I want to inquire regarding my leave privileges. I am now 11 months in my company. How many leaves am I privileged to? Based on Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 regulating labour relations and its executive regulations, you are entitled to a paid weekly rest for not less than one day, as specified in the work contract or the work regulation. The Council of Ministers may increase the weekly rest day stipulated in this article. The Decree-Law and its executive regulations also stipulate that you are entitled to an annual leave with full pay as follows: - Thirty days for each year of your extended service. - Two days per month in respect of any employee with more than six months and less than one year of service. - Leave for parts of the last year of your service in case it is terminated before you use your annual leave balance. Now my question is: do I have 22 days I can use? Can someone explain to me in detail? Thank you!

What is the immediate solution, please?

طاب صباحك، بسبب الوباء العالمي، تأثرت مشاريع الفنادق والسياحة بشكل كبير مما أدى إلى تخفيض راتبي بنسبة 50٪ في شهري مارس وأبريل 2020. ولست متأكدًا مما إذا كنت سأحصل على راتبي في الأشهر القادمة أيضًا. تعمل زوجتي مضيفة طيران وتأثر عملها بنفس الطريقة بسبب تخفيض الراتب، وبسبب إلغاء رحلات طيران معينة، أصبحت تحصل حاليًا على 20٪ فقط من قيمة دخلها الفعلي الذي كانت تكسبه قبل تفشي فيروس كورونا. طلبت بطريقة مهذبة من المالك إما تخفيض الإيجار في الشهر الذي سيتم فيه تخفيض راتبي أو تمديد عقد الإيجار مجانًا لبضعة أشهر، الأمر الذي سيخفف العبء المالي لعام 2020. يرجى تقديم المشورة بشأن هذه الأزمة المالية وحالة الإغاثة الإيجارية. شكرًا لك.

لقد صدر حكم محكمة العمل لصالحي (أنا موظف) في ديسمبر 2019، ضد صاحب العمل السابق، لعدم دفعه الرواتب والمطالبات المتعلقة بالنفقات ومكافأة نهاية الخدمة. لسوء الحظ، لم يسددوا مستحقاتي حتى الآن. والأسوأ من ذلك أن المالكين غادروا البلاد ولم تعد الشركة قائمة على أرض الواقع؛ ولا يوجد سوى الكيان القانوني. ليس لديهم أي أصول أيضًا. هل من المنطقي الاستمرار في السعي لتنفيذ الحكم؟ أيضًا، هل هناك أحكام لمتابعة تنفيذ الحكم في بلد إقامتهم الحالي؟

سيدي المحترم، أنا طالب وعمري 17 سنة. في الآونة الأخيرة اكتشفت أنه يمكنني كسب بعض المال من خلال الجلوس في المنزل وإجراء دراسات استقصائية عبر الإنترنت. أحتاج إلى هذا المال حتى لا أزعج والديّ باحتياجاتي البسيطة، كما سيساعدهم ذلك من ناحية أخرى على الادخار. سؤالي هو؛ هل يُعد إجراء هذه الدراسات الاستقصائية عبر الإنترنت قانونيًا وآمنًا؟ يُذكر في الموقع الإلكتروني أنه إذا كان الشخص أكبر من 13 عامًا، فإنه يمكنه إجراء هذه الدراسات الاستقصائية. يرجى تقديم المشورة. مع فائق الاحترام والتقدير.

Hi, I need some guidance regarding a property transaction that is not progressing as expected. My broker initiated a manual Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between me (the Buyer) and the Seller, with an expiry date of 01/02/2025. Within this period, I successfully arranged the bank mortgage, property evaluation, and NOC. However, the broker started giving excuses, such as the seller being hospitalized. Later, the broker attempted to arrange a Power of Attorney (POA). However, after that, they started ignoring my messages and calls. It now seems like they no longer intend to proceed with me, and the MOU has already expired. Meanwhile, my bank EMI has already started, and I have paid two monthly installments. The broker is still unresponsive. I have raised multiple complaints through DLD RVS against the broker, but the response has been very slow and unsatisfactory. I’m feeling stuck and financially burdened. Please advise

Hey, I'm building my house in Dubai, and it was going well. I gave the contractor 420k as a first payment, and we both agreed that the rest would be in installments. Just two months ago, the contractor went off the grid, and I can't find him. All I have is a security cheque that bounced back when I went to the bank, as the signature doesn't match what's in the file. However, I learnt that he does have money, but not the amount that's in the cheque. What should I do now to get my money back? I need advice.
