Can the employee claim compensation from the employer for work abuse?
Hello legal advisers and lawyers,
What is the compensation I can get from my employer's violation and abuse of me?
- No days off.

- Not enough food.
- Not paid fairly according to working hours.

- Forced to work 24 hours against my will and reason for me to get too sick, restless and sleepless.

Dear questioner,
You need to raise a complaint against your employer in MOHRE and mention all of the above to them.
If you prove that they overworked you, you can get compensation for all the extra hours and days you have worked.
