س: سيدي العزيز / سيدتي العزيزة، أريد المزيد من التوضيح للبند 3 من المادة (9) من المرسوم بقانون اتحادي رقم 33 والذي ينص على ما يلي: "في حالة رغبة العامل الانتقال، خلال فترة التجربة، للعمل لدى صاحب عمل آخر في الدولة، يجب عليه إخطار صاحب العمل الأصلي بذلك خطيًّا بمدة لا تقل عن شهر من تاريخ رغبته بإنهاء العقد، ويلتزم صاحب العمل الجديد بتعويض صاحب العمل الأصلي بتكاليف الاستقدام أو التعاقد مع العامل، ما لم يتم الاتفاق على خلاف ذلك". ماذا تعني "تكاليف الاستقدام أو التعاقد"؟

س: أصدرت المحكمة حكمًا أوليًا لإشراك الخبير في التقارير. ومع ذلك، بناءً على وثائق الحكم الأولي، قدمت طلبي للعمل والعمال لإلغاء بطاقة العمل الخاصة بي من الشركة. بعد العملية، قال المستشار القانوني من العمل والعمال، إن حكم المحكمة ليس نهائيًا، لذا يحق للشركة رفض الإلغاء، وبالتالي، أسقطوا طلب الإلغاء. يرجى تقديم المشورة إذا كان ما فعله العمل والعمال صحيحًا. وكيف يمكنني إلغاء تأشيرتي للسماح لشركة أخرى بإصدار تأشيرة لي؟

Q: Good day! I just want to ask a few questions. Where should I request an NOC so that I can work for another company while waiting for my case? I forgot to inform the judge yesterday. During my hearing yesterday, my previous employer did not attend. The judge informed me that he would issue his judgment after two days. What is the meaning of that judgment? Thank you in advance!

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, I filed a labor complaint, but the company did not pick up the phone when they called twice. We did not discuss the issue mutually, so I was advised to go to court. I gave a notice period from August 17, 2023 to September 17, 2023. My actual notice period is 3 months, but I did not receive my salary for 4 months. If I get a job offer letter while the case is in court and want to cancel my visa, will they accept it? If not, what should I do? Will there be any complications in joining another employer?

Q: Dear Sir/Ma’am, I hope all is well with you, and I trust you can assist me in this situation. I was employed by a private company before I resigned, and my last working day was on September 30. The issue is that they do not want to cancel my employment and provide my gratuity and settlement. Additionally, my labor card expired on October 6, 2023; will I incur fines for this? I filed a court case last November, and its second hearing is scheduled for December 26. I have already obtained an NOC from Al Adheed Center. Recently, I received an offer letter from a free zone, and they are prepared to issue me an employment visa. My current visa is set to expire on December 26, 2023. Can I personally process the cancellation of my visa and labor card so that the Free Zone company can legally proceed on my behalf while my case is ongoing? Thank you!

Q: Dear Lawyers, How long will it take to get the NOC from the court for the new visa? How much do I need to pay to the court to obtain the NOC? I have civil and criminal bank cases, and I am availing of Amnesty.

Q: Hi, lawyer. I have a travel ban and an ongoing case. My labor card is approved. I want to know if I can still process my visa, noting that I already have a travel ban due to the investigation.

Q: Hello, I am switching jobs soon. Can my current work visa be canceled if I still have a personal loan and credit cards that I am making payments on?
