كيف يمكن معرفة تاريخ الانضمام الرسمي للعمل؟

طاب يومك يا راجاسري،

أتمنى أن تكوني بخير إن شاء الله.

لدي سؤال من فضلك.

ما هو التاريخ الرسمي للانضمام للعمل؟ هل يكون من تاريخ توقيع العقد بينك وبين صاحب العمل أم من تاريخ إصدار التأشيرة؟

لدي قضية مع الشركة وهم يدعون في دفاعهم أن الموعد الرسمي لانضمامي للعمل هو عندما تم إصدار تأشيرتي. لتسهيل الأمر، لقد انضممت للعمل في 24 يونيو 2018 – وتركته في 7 يوليو 2019.

تشير الشركة بالاستناد إلى عقد العمل (محدد المدة)، وتقول أن العقد ساري من تاريخ دخولي البلد وهو 26 يوليو 2018، على الرغم من أنني كنت هنا وبدأت العمل في 24 يونيو 2018.

(لقد تم إنهاء خدمتي والشركة ولا تعترف بذلك).

شكرًا لكِ.

Dear Questioner,

Thanks for writing to me.

Please note that the employer-employee relationship starts from the day you enter the UAE under the entry permit issued by the employer or on the day you signed the offer letter [MoL's offer letter].

Stamping of visa and issue of labour card...etc. takes place only after the initial stage of signing the offer letter.

From the above description, I understand that you entered the country under the work permit issued by the employer on 26th July 2018 and hence the same is considered as your joining date.

I am not sure under which visa you started working from 24th June 2018. Please note that it is illegal to work under a tourist visa.

Hope the above explanation is satisfactory.

Thank you.

Regards,

Dear Rajasree,

Thank you for your swift response.

I've been living in the UAE forever (Never left the country).

My official joining date for the company was 24 June 2018 (First day at work). The offer Letter from the company mentioned and states that and signed by both parties.

The visa was issued later after joining. at the MOL offer, the contract was made on 17th July 2018 and it is mentioned that we agreed my contract date is from entering the country on 26th July 2018 - 25th July 2020.

My question is when is my actual official date of joining (How does the court look into that), so I can prove I've completed a year in order to be eligible to get all my compensation.

Thanking you!

When did you sign the MoL offer letter?

The court will calculate on the basis on the said date.

14 Oct 2019, 07:42

MOL Contract was signed: 17/7/2018

Offer letter contract signed between me and the company (Joining date of work): 24/6/2018

Last day in the company: 7/7/2019

Did I complete a year? When will the court calculate from?

If the MoL offer letter was signed on 24th June 2018, and if your last day of work is 7th July 2019 you have completed more than a year.

Dear,

Offer letter contract signed between me and the company (Official joining date of work): 24/6/2018

Last day in the company: 7/7/2019

The court will approve which date once again.

Thanking you!
