القانون المعمول به في النزاعات العمالية الخاضعة لتأشيرات خاصة

لقد كنت أعمل لدى شركة في إمارة أبو ظبي مع أحد الشيوخ وكانت تأشيرتي تابعة لمكتب خاص. لقد عملت معهم لمدة ثلاث سنوات وليس لمدة عامين كما في القطاع الخاص.

أيضًا، لم يكن لدي بطاقة عمل ولم تكن اتفاقية التوظيف مسجلة لدى وزارة العمل.

هل أعمل بموجب قانون العمل رقم 8 لسنة 1980؟ وفي حالة النزاع، هل ألجأ إلى محكمة العمل أم المحكمة المدنية؟

I was working in a company in Abu Dhabi for a sheikh and my visa was on his Private Office. It was for three years and not for two years like the private sector.

Also, I had no labour card and my employment agreement was not registered with the Labour Department.

Do I follow and apply the labour law 8 of 1980? And in case of dispute, shall I go to the labour court or civil court?
