Dear Questioner,

The document signed between the employee and the employer has legal value and is accepted by the courts, unless it violates public order, the law, or violates the contract signed by the Ministry of Human Resource and Emiratization.

Dear Questioner,

If it is a free zone company, it is the one between the employee and employer that is approved by the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (MOHRE).
