Termination for non-performance without prior warnings
Hi!
I would like to ask for advice.
The company has terminated me last June 30, 2019. My work is a visual merchandiser and we have 16 stores across the UAE which I need to visit all in one month.
But last April and May, I have not visited some of the shops due to other important and urgent work.
The company suddenly send me a termination letter due to non-performance which I am really shocked because I didn't understand that they put non-performance if I am doing other important and urgent projects.
There is no warning letter given to me. Since I'm getting pressure from the HR, I had signed the termination letter and it was effective June 30, 2019.
But after 3 or 4 days, the company asked me to come to work for 1 month notice period July 1-31. Then they ask me to work again in August, and then until September 15. Then they terminated me.
I need your advice if there's a chance that I could complain about this to the labour and the chances of getting the correct compensation.
Thanks
Dear Questioner,
You definitely have a very good chance of getting good amount of compensation.
The employer has to serve 3 notices of non-performance if he wants to terminate an employee for non -performance.

Hi Dear,
As we understand your inquiry, here are some information that might help you.
In arbitrary dismissal, employers are liable to compensate the employee for wrongful termination along with the gratuity and other dues.
In redundancy, there is no such compensation other than gratuity pay and/or notice period compensation.
You have the chance to file a labour complaint before the courts and get your EOS along with compensation of arbitrary dismissal.
If you want more information or clarifications, you can contact us on email or phone.
