Having received my judgment amount, am I also entitled to the Dubai Insurance amount?

Hello,

If the insurance amount registered in the system is linked to an enforcement case and remains in "counterparty" status, this amount is usually returned to the insurance company or the party that paid it, depending on the case conditions and the court ruling.

If the case has concluded and you have confirmed that the due amount has been received in your bank account, you can contact the Enforcement Department or the insurance company to verify the possibility of a refund and make the necessary arrangements.

Dear Questioner,

Thank you for your update and question regarding the status of the enforcement proceedings and the AED 20,000 Dubai Insurance amount.

Based on your explanation, it appears that the AED 20,000 was deposited by Dubai Insurance as a guarantee during the labor case proceedings, typically to comply with the requirement for companies to maintain insurance coverage for employee obligations.

Now that the judgment amount has been paid out to you, and you've successfully received it into your bank account, the status showing as "In Enforcement" may simply reflect an administrative delay in closing the case file.

Regarding the AED 20,000 insurance amount:

If the insurance amount was not part of your awarded judgment, and the company has already settled the full amount due to you, then this AED 20,000 is likely to be returned to Dubai Insurance as it was held only as a guarantee.

You will not receive this AED 20,000 unless the judgment or court explicitly awards that amount to you in addition to the compensation already received.

Once all enforcement steps are completed and the court confirms no further liabilities, the insurance amount is generally released back to the counterparty or the insurer.

We recommend checking your judgment document carefully to see if the AED 20,000 is included in the awarded compensation. If it is not, then it is safe to assume that the amount is not payable to you.

We can assist in reviewing the court documents or contacting the enforcement office for a final confirmation.

Hello,

In labor judgment enforcement cases, the insurance amount deposited by the insurance company (such as Dubai Insurance) serves as a guarantee until the judgment is fully executed.

If the employer has paid the full judgment amount, the court will notify the insurance company and release the guarantee back to Dubai Insurance.

This amount will not be paid to you as a worker because it is not part of your entitlements; it is a performance guarantee.

Dear Inquirer,

Thank you for your message!

Since you have already received your judgment amount, the AED 20,000 showing under Dubai Insurance likely relates to the labor guarantee provided by the employer at the start of employment.

This amount does not automatically get released to you and may either be returned to Dubai Insurance or retained by the court, depending on whether there are any remaining obligations or claims.

To determine if you are entitled to this amount or if any further action is required, we recommend a detailed review of your case file.

Dear questioner,

Carefully re-examine the initial judgment and any subsequent enforcement orders. Look for any mention of insurance or guarantees related to your entitlements.

Also, contact the Enforcement Labor Court in Abu Dhabi if necessary for clarification.
