I won the case against my ex-employer based on a lower salary. Should I appeal?
Dear all,
I have just won my case against my former employer.
However, the salary the court used for the calculations of my arrears is the one mentioned in the labor contract (46000 per month) instead of the actual salary paid out via WPS (55200).
I hired one of the best law firms here, and we submitted salary slips, bank statements with credits, and a salary certificate with 55200 as the salary. However, the judge used 46000 to calculate the payout.
Now, I have the option to appeal. But the difference is barely 20000 and from what I have heard, the appeal could take 2-3 months more.
What should I do? Appeal or take whatever is given?
Grateful for your thoughts on this matter.
Thank you.
Please check your judgment if it provides for immediate execution of the judgment.
If yes, you may file execution to receive the money and also file an appeal to get the amount revised.
It's up to you if you want AED 20,000 or not. Accordingly, you may file the appeal.
Hi,
We advise that you appeal.
If you had hired one of the best law firms, then we assume that the first instance judgment issued in your favor is enforceable immediately.
As such, you can start enforcement procedures and appeal simultaneously.
