The non-competition clause:
(1) Must be clearly mentioned in your contract (Article 127 of the UAE Labour law)
(2) Along with the period of non-competition, and
(3) Territory (Article 909 and article 910 of the UAE Civil Code).
And if all is done, the employer has to prove his loss UNLESS a specific amount of compensation is mentioned.
If no amount is mentioned let him prove his loss, which will be difficult.
