I won a labor case and the execution is completed, but my employer hasn’t paid. What’s next?

Dear questioner,

You can check the possibilities to attach the company properties.

However, the company will provide the pending salary once they face difficulties in carrying out the law compliance.

Until then, we need to wait and check for court updates regarding the case.

Greetings,

You can submit a request to seize bank accounts, cars, etc., so that your money can be paid as quickly as possible.

Hi,

To expedite receiving your unpaid salary, you should seek the enforcement of the court's decision through legal authorities, potentially involving a lawyer to push for immediate action against your former employer.

Dear Questioner,

If you've won a labor case and the execution process has been completed, but your employer still hasn't paid, there are further steps you can take to enforce the judgment and expedite the payment of your dues.

Here's what you can consider:

1. Enforce the Judgment:

If your employer hasn't complied with the court's judgment, you can take legal action to enforce it. This may involve seeking assistance from the relevant authorities, such as the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) or the labor court, to ensure that your employer pays the outstanding dues.

2. Garnishment:

You may consider requesting the court to issue a garnishment order, which allows you to seize assets or funds directly from your employer to satisfy the judgment. This could include freezing the company's bank accounts or seizing other assets to recover the unpaid wages.

3. File a Complaint:

If your employer continues to ignore the court's judgment and refuses to pay, you can file a formal complaint with the authorities. This could lead to further legal action against the company and its representatives for non-compliance with labor laws and court orders.

4. Seek Legal Assistance:

Consider seeking assistance from a lawyer who specializes in labor law and debt recovery in the UAE. They can provide guidance on the best course of action to enforce the judgment and expedite the payment of your dues. A lawyer can also represent you in legal proceedings and advocate for your rights effectively.

5. Stay Persistent:

Persistence is key in situations like this. Follow up regularly with the relevant authorities and legal representatives to ensure that progress is being made in enforcing the judgment and recovering your unpaid wages. Document all communications and actions taken to support your case.

6. Explore Alternative Options:

In some cases, alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation or arbitration may be effective in resolving the dispute and securing payment from your employer. Consult with your lawyer to explore all available options for resolving the matter.

It's essential to take proactive steps to enforce the judgment and recover your unpaid wages. By seeking legal assistance and staying persistent, you can maximize your chances of obtaining the payment owed to you in a timely manner.
