س: السلام عليكم ورحمة الله، التصرف تجاه تقصير المحكمة العمالية في إجراءات التنفيذ وعقد أكثر من ٣٠ جلسة تنفيذ بدون أي دفع لمجموعة عمال، مع العلم أنه قد تم تقديم ما يثبت أن المنفذ ضده يمتلك ثروة ضخمة قادرة على تغطية مبلغ التنفيذ. ما الإجراء الأفضل غير اللجوء للتفتيش القضائي؟

Q: Dear sir/madam, We are five employees working for a Dubai-based LLC company. We had a labor case with the company. We won the case, and the court appointed an expert to sell the company's assets. The process has been completed, but the GM had sold all the valuable assets in advance. As a result, there is nothing left in the company. When we checked with Al-Adheed (Dubai Court) for a travel ban, we were told it is not possible as it is an LLC company. At this point, we (with a total claim of 300,000 AED) want to hire a lawyer to: 1. Check if we can request a travel ban or arrest warrant against the GM of the company. 2. We believe that he transferred the money to his personal accounts. So, we want to audit the two company accounts (FZC-AJMAN and LLC-DUBAI) for the last 5 years. The company has mainly two branches, one LLC-DUBAI and FZC-AJMAN. Our visas were under LLC, but most of the invoices and payments were through the FZC account. The owners and VAT numbers of both these companies are the same, and we have email and account statements to prove this. Kindly advise!

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, I won the case against my employer and am now in the execution order process. When can I get the money after execution? What are the steps to follow after execution registration? How does the court pay me the money?

Q: Hi Ma'am, I just want to ask because I have an execution against my company and we finished all the steps. Now there was a change in the name and he failed to pay me. I requested a warrant for my manager. Is it possible that he will pay me? It has already been 4 months since my case.

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, I have won a judgment in my favor against my employer for pending salaries, and the execution is complete. The court has locked the employer's office, and an expert appointed by the court is tasked with selling the office assets to recover the money. However, the office assets, including furniture and desktops, are valued at not more than 5000 AED, whereas my due amount is 100 thousand. Please advise on how the court will recover the remaining balance from the employer.

Q: I have got the final labor case judgment date of 20/03/2024 and I waited for more than one month, but the company did not respond. So I registered an execution case dated 30/04/2024 in Dubai Courts and issued a notice to the company. One person visited the company location but a person from the company said that the company was not there, so the court representative took a picture of the location and reported back to the court. On 23/05/2024, I visited the Al Adheed Center again and they issued a digital notice by email, and till now the company has not responded. I need your expert advice, what should I do now? Please note that the company is Dubai-based. The license is LLC and it's already blocked due to a group complaint against them by the MOHRE.

Q: Dear Lawyers, A labor case has been in the execution phase for the past eight months. I have pursued various enforcement actions, including blocking bank accounts, placing inquiries and holds on properties, and blocking the traffic file. I’ve also requested inquiries and holds on trade licenses. However, the defendant did not respond. Eventually, I requested a travel ban on the manager, which the court approved. This prompted the defendant to argue that, as an LLC, the court cannot impose a travel ban on the manager, citing independence issues and similar arguments. Now, the court has asked me to respond. Could you advise me on how to argue to keep the travel ban in effect? The manager’s personal accountability as a representative of the LLC and the prolonged non-response from the company. Evidence showing that the defendant’s non-responsiveness justifies such measures to ensure enforcement. Legal precedents or arguments demonstrating that the travel ban is a legitimate enforcement action under similar circumstances.

Q: Dear Lawyers, How can I inquire about properties registered under a company if I have a copy of its trade license but don't know how to verify the properties associated with it? Please note that my labor case is currently in the execution stage. Despite taking multiple steps, the employer is disregarding the court's decision and continues to ignore it. The company is an LLC, and its bank accounts show no available funds.

The UAE has adopted a major reform in its legislative system that brought about 40 new laws and amendments to the company law, criminal law, personal status, among others. The amendments aim to develop the legislative structure in various sectors, the labor law being one of these, was the most recent. We try in this article to shed light on the changes introduced with the new labor law and their significance on both, the employer and employee.

The law promulgates UAE Civil Procedures Code (Civil Procedure Law) which governs civil procedures in the United Arab Emirates, including the prosecution before the courts, litigation and execution.

The provisions of this Law, known as "UAE Labour Law", govern the relationship between employers and employees and other labour matters in the United Arab Emirates. There are special labour related regulations applicable in some of the free zones in the UAE.

The provisions of this Decree-Law, known as "New UAE Labor Law", govern labour relations in the private sector of the United Arab Emirates. The New Labor Law repeals the previous UAE Labor Law (Federal Law No. (8) of 1980).
