Q: I was terminated from my job without any notice from my employer, and they are still holding my visa cancellation.

Q: Hi Sir, Good evening. Please, I need your guidance. I have been working in a construction company for 15 years as a civil engineer. My last visa got expired on 25.02.2019 & I had done my medical on 17.02.2019. But meanwhile, I got a termination notice on 20.03.2019 in which I have been given time till 17.04.2019. But meanwhile, my company renewed my visa as well which is valid until 2021. Am I eligible to get a salary until 17.04.2019 only (1 month) or the company has to pay for 3 months as my contract was terminated immediately after renewal? My visa was issued on 17.02.2019 and I got the termination notice on 20.03.2019. Thank you

Q: My employer has terminated my employment with Clause 107 which was wrongly applied. What and how I can challenge this unlawful termination?

Q: Hi I made а complaint against my employer for not paying full notice period salary and for due salary (38 days salary) on 02-02-24 and I received a call from the Labor Advisor to research the complaint. Тhereafter, I received one SMS stating that they would contact me again on 05-02-24 at 04:30 pm. But until now, I haven’t received any call or update from the Labor Advisor. In MOHRE, it’s showing that recommendations are not yet approved by the Ministry. Please advise me on what to do.

There are laws and international conventions in place to protect workers’ rights and ensure their wellbeing. Specifically, under the UAE Labor Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021), there are established procedures for terminating employment contracts.

The provisions of this Decree-Law, known as "New UAE Labor Law", govern labour relations in the private sector of the United Arab Emirates. The New Labor Law repeals the previous UAE Labor Law (Federal Law No. (8) of 1980).

The provisions of this Law, known as "UAE Labour Law", govern the relationship between employers and employees and other labour matters in the United Arab Emirates. There are special labour related regulations applicable in some of the free zones in the UAE.

This Decree sets the rules and conditions for the termination of fixed-term (limited) or unlimited (not term-bound) employment contract between employer and worker in the United Arab Emirates.
