Obligation to pay the repatriation expenses to an employee upon resignation
Kindly advise if the company (Dubai based) is obliged to pay the employee the cost of an air ticket back home country upon resignation.
It's a limited contract and the notice period was served, but the employee didn't finish the contract (worked for 11 months & 20 days only).
The employer is obligated to bear the expenses of returning the worker to his country or any other place that the two parties have agreed upon unless he has joined the service of another employer, or the reason for terminating the work contract is attributed to the worker, in which case, the worker is committed to those expenses.
The two parties may terminate the contract for a legitimate reason, on the condition of notifying the other in writing within a period agreed upon in the contract.
