Resignation from a Freezone company and paying compensation
Hello,
I would like to seek your advice regarding my situation. I have recently resigned from a Freezone company. I have a Fujairah visa. I was able to complete my first contract of 3 years.
This year, I have renewed my contract and after 6 months, I decided to resign. I've completed my render period of 30 days.
Now, my boss is telling me that in lieu of my contract termination, I am not entitled to receive gratuity and cannot encash my unused leaves as I have to payback my visa renewal and medical fees including the cancellation.
He also mentioned that I am reliable for the "early termination compensation" which means I have to pay half of three months salary and allowances. I have tried to call MOHRE but they said that Freezone is not part of their scope.

مرحبًا،
ردًا على استفسارك بشأن الاستقالة، أريد أن أعرف ما هو نوع العقد الذي وقّعته مع صاحب العمل الخاص بك؟
قانون العمل الإماراتي واضح للغاية، تقع على عاتق صاحب العمل مسؤولية استخراج التأشيرة وتصريح العمل وكذلك دفع تكاليفهما. هذا ينطبق على كلٍ من أصحاب العمل في البر الرئيسي وجميع المناطق الحرة.
بعد إتمام عام واحد في العمل، يحق للموظف الحصول على مستحقات نهاية الخدمة.
