Getting labour benefits after getting detained in a drug case

Hi Ma'am,

My husband was detained for almost a month because of a drug case. He was working for his company for more than 10 years.

Is there any chance that he can get his settlement?

Thanks!

It depends on whether your husband was sentenced or not.

He will not get anything under article 120 of the labour law:

If the worker is awarded a final judgement by the competent court in respect of an offence prejudicing honour, honesty or public morals.
