Q: I have a couple of labour issues.
I worked for a company for 7 months, and I was lied to regarding my visa status while I was working. It was said it was possessing while it was not, and I also received a false labour contract which I later found out.
Once I finally received my visa, I had a death in the family so I wanted to take my emergency leave.
My employer said it will be an unpaid leave, so I replied I thought I can get 30 days paid leave after my probation period, then he replied bring in your passport for termination.
I just needed to leave the country for 2 weeks for the funeral even if he would have said that he could not pay for the leave it would be ok, but by terminating me instead, I thought it was a wrongful termination.
When I came into the office they told me it was because of poor work performance, which was not true because I never received a prior documented notice with my signature regarding poor work performance.
What legal actions can I take towards this case?

س: سيدي العزيز،
إنني صاحب صالون تجميل للسيدات. أريد المشورة بشأن المسألة المذكورة أدناه.
في الآونة الأخيرة، قمنا بتعيين موظفة في شهر نوفمبر 2019. ولكنها لم تُكمل فترة الاختبار؛ كانت تعمل بموجب عقد عمل غير محدد المدة.
الموظفة غير منضبطة، كيف يمكن التعامل معها؟
أرسلت لي الاستقالة بالإضافة إلى طلب إلغاء التأشيرة بتاريخ 02/04/2020 وبدون قضاء فترة إشعار.
في هذه الحالة، كيف يمكنك مساعدتي؟
في حالة الاستقالة المبكرة هل توجد قوانين تنص على دفع الموظف تعويضًا قدره (45 يومًا)؟
يرجى تقديم المشورة. ستكون مشورتك محل تقدير كبير.
شكرًا.

After 10 months with my company, can I access leave and ticket fare?


2
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
I am an employee in a private firm, and I have completed 10 months. However, my company was taken over by another company. My company provides ticket fare at the month of the joining date.
I have over 20 leaves. But my old company says that I can't take my leave; if I take it, it will be paid, and I'm not eligible for ticket fare because I have not completed one year.
Please give me a proper answer!

What can I do if my tenant is not providing rent cheques nor responding to renew the tenancy contract? 0
Hi,
I am a landlord and need advice on the following scenario.
- The contract with my tenant expired in Sep 2024. Upon requesting the renewal, the tenant mentioned that she is out of the country and will sign the renewal contract and provide the rent checks. In the meantime, she paid the first quarter of rent through a bank transfer.
- After 3 months, when the next quarter's payment was due, she deposited the next quarter's rent into my bank but did not sign the contract renewal despite my follow-up with her multiple times. At this time, she had returned to Dubai.
- Now the next quarter payment is due, however, the tenant is not responding to WhatsApp or answering calls. She is NOT paying rent or renewing the contract.
What action can I take since she is not answering my calls or messages?
She does not have a valid contract or Ejari, and her rent is delayed by 1 month. All WhatsApp messages are delivered, but she chooses not to respond.

My brother had a heart attack and was treated at a hospital. Can the insurance refuse to cover costs? 0
My brother had a heart attack two weeks ago, and the ambulance took him to the nearest hospital, where the staff and doctors provided excellent care. Unfortunately, the hospital was not covered by his insurance.
After an emergency procedure, they inserted a stent, and he was discharged four days later, with a referral to a hospital that was covered by his insurance.
When we arrived at the referred hospital, the doctor wanted to insert additional stents, as mentioned in the discharge documents.
However, the hospital applied for insurance approval, and the insurance provider rejected the request. When we contacted the insurance company, they insisted that he travel back home to continue his treatment.
However, he is unable to travel due to his condition.
Kindly assist with this matter.

Hello Sir,
I am facing an issue with my employer. I work in the private sector in the UAE, and my employment visa expires in June 2025.
After two years, I traveled to my home country for vacation, and one week after my arrival, the company sent me an email terminating my employment due to performance issues.
However, I was never given any prior warning or written notice. The termination email also did not mention any notice period or other details.

I purchased a rented apartment in Abu Dhabi. Can I evict the tenant immediately if there is no Tawtheeq contact? 0
I recently purchased a rented apartment in Abu Dhabi and agreed to honor the existing lease. After the transfer, I discovered that the lease is not a Tawtheeq contract, meaning it is not officially registered.
Since I am not receiving rent (as it was a non-refundable arrangement with the seller), I prefer not to issue a new Tawtheeq. I also want to avoid a formal notice to vacate to prevent disputes, as I plan to move in.
However, I have already informed the tenant that I will not be renewing the lease. I need legal advice on the implications of proceeding without a Tawtheeq contract.
What are my risks, especially if the tenant refuses to move out?
What legal actions, if any, can the tenant take in this situation?

How can I cancel my visa and POA for financial matters if I have a travel ban for company bounced cheque? 0
I am seeking urgent guidance regarding my current visa status in the UAE. I was previously employed by a company that has now shut down, but my visa is still under that company.
During my tenure, I held Power of Attorney (POA) for all financial matters. However, after a cheque issued by the company bounced, the owner revoked my POA without my knowledge.
The company officially closed last year, and the owner (a lady) has been missing since the case emerged.
No one from the company is responding, and I am currently stuck in Dubai due to a travel ban imposed on me related to this case.
I need clarification on the following points:
How can I cancel my existing visa under this closed company?
Will I be able to obtain a new visa under another company despite the travel ban?
Are there any legal blocks or restrictions affecting my visa or employment options?
What legal steps can I take to resolve this situation?
I would appreciate your guidance on the next steps and any possible solutions.
