خفض الراتب أثناء جائحة كورونا رغم أن الشركة لم تتأثر

Dear questioner,

If the branch in the UAE is not affected and the company here is doing well, then the company has no legal ground to reduce or deduct the salary.

Hi,

It was illegal to reduce or deduct the salary of employees under the UAE law without a change in the labor contract.

However, MOHRE passed a resolution today regarding COVID-19 problem that they permit the companies to make a contract between the employee and the employer regarding the reduction of salary and that should be registered with MOHRE.

Therefore, if you both agreed for deduction or reduction, it can be possible, otherwise, it is against the law.

For further consultation please call or WhatsApp me.
