The repercussions of terminating an employment contract during probation

Hello,

I'm working in a company & I'm on a probation period. I want to ask if I can also terminate the contract before finishing my probation period.

If I can terminate the contract, do I have to serve the notice period or no?

Greetings.

This is subjective to the type of contract you have with your employer - limited or unlimited.

If it is limited and is in the mainland of Dubai, you will automatically have a labor ban placed upon you by your employer.

If it is unlimited, you will have to serve the notice period as mentioned in your contract if you wish to resign.

Dear Questioner,

This is subjective to the type of contract you have with your employer.

If your contract is limited and is in the mainland of Dubai, you will automatically have a labour ban placed upon you by your employer's request.

If it is unlimited, you will have to serve the notice period as mentioned in your contract if you wish to resign.
