Supervisor took my photo without consent: Can I sue?

Dear Sir/Madam,

During my work, I am supposed to wear safety glasses, but unfortunately, due to some reason, I removed them.

At that time, my supervisor took a picture of me with my face more visible and shared the photo in an email to safety personnel and other team members.

He took the photo without my consent. If a safety violation needs to be reported to the company, he can use the company surveillance cameras instead of taking a photo and sharing it with others.

He took the photo while standing in front of me, and he didn't even ask for my consent. I feel embarrassed about the photo.

Can I file a case related to this?

Dear Questioner,

Any person who is photographed or whose pictures are published without his permission has the right to resort to the judiciary and prosecute those who violated his privacy by exploiting the pictures in any way, whether directly or electronically.

Anyone has the right to file this lawsuit in the Emirates, whether the publication of the pictures caused them to be abused or not.

Dear questioner,

Sharing the photo with the safety team is not against the law.

Sharing it with other employees is an invasion of privacy.
