Labor case for the non-payment of salaries
Dear Sir,
I was working as a construction manager in one of the facade companies in Dubai for the last 2 years.
This company has salary delays during the beginning of my career and unfortunately, it worsened over the years and currently reached almost 10 months and I have to quit the company now.
The issue is that the above facade company took the employment visa for me from another company who was supplying labours (labour supply company) to them since the facade company can't provide visas.
Is there any way to claim my balance salary and end of service benefits from the facade company?
I have a copy of the contract between the facade company and my visa provider company (labour supply company) and NOC from this labour supply company.
Also, I have proof (emails and others) to prove that I worked in the facade company as their employee. Is there any other way if I approach any law firms such as yours?
Dear Questioner,
According to the labour law, delaying in giving salaries is considered as termination and breaching of the contract.
You have the right to file a labour case against both companies to force both of them to pay your labour entitlements.
You need also to translate your emails and any other documents into Arabic which proof the relation between both companies, then you can go ahead for your case.
