How to reduce notice period in UAE with limited contract?
Dear Sir/Madam,
I live in Dubai. I have been working for a private company in the UAE for the past 9 years. I want to resign from my job, and I have already sent a resignation email to my company with a 30-day notice period.
However, my company is asking me to serve a 90-day notice period instead.
How can I cancel the 90-day notice period?
I have a limited contract with my company.
Dear Client,
Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will definitely assist you in this matter.
If you have a limited contract with a 30-day notice period and your company is requesting a 90-day notice, first, attempt to negotiate with your employer to honor the terms of your contract.
Share your willingness to fulfill the standard 30-day notice. If you believe your employer is not adhering to the terms of your employment contract, including the notice period, you can file a complaint with the UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE).

Thanks & Regards,
