Hello,

We are pleased to provide the requested service.

The worker can submit a complaint to the Ministry of Labor over the phone or on the website.

All entitlements must be accounted for (overdue salaries, vacations, end-of-service benefits, airline tickets for him and his family, and any other entitlements according to the contract).

The matter is presented for settlement before the employee of the ministry, and if the solution is not resolved, the file is referred to the court, and a session is set for its consideration before the judge.

After the ruling, an implementation file is opened to collect the amount.

There are many actions that can be taken against the company to enforce the judgment.

Seizure of bank accounts and company cars, banning the manager from traveling, and other procedures.

In the event that the file is referred to the court and you need an expert lawyer in these cases, you can write to us at our email.
