Dear User,

According to the UAE Labor Law and the rules regarding domestic workers, after completing one year, workers are entitled to 30-days of annual paid leave.

If your boss is refusing to give you leave, you may lodge a complaint at MOHRE. Kindly also refer to your employment contract on the clauses specifying annual leave, if any.

Kind regards,

KHA Advocates

According to the terms of the contract, you have the right to get an annual vacation of one paid month.

Try first to understand him amicably.
