هل يحق لرئيسي السابق المطالبة باسترداد ثمن تذكرة العودة بعد عودتي إلى الإمارات؟

سيدي/سيدتي العزيزة،

انهيت عقدي وطلبت من رئيسي دفع ثمن تذكرة العودة بعد إلغاء التأشيرة. أعطاني المبلغ بعد أن أكدتُ له أنني لن أبقى في الإمارات.

في ذلك الوقت، كنت أبحث عن عمل في دول خليجية مختلفة. قبل يومين من مغادرتي الإمارات، عُرضت عليّ وظيفة في دبي وقبلتها. غادرتُ وعدتُ بعد شهر وحصلتُ على تأشيرتي الجديدة بعد شهرين.

الآن، يطلب مني رئيسي السابق إعادة ثمن تذكرة العودة. ويُصرّ على أنه لا يحق لي الحصول على تذكرة عودة لأنني لم أغادر نهائيًا وعدتُ.

وهددني باتخاذ إجراء قانوني إذا رفضتُ إعادة المبلغ. ويعتبر هذا احتيالًا. هل هناك أي بند في قانون العمل الإماراتي، المادة 131، يُلزم الموظف بالمغادرة نهائيًا؟

ما هي احتمالات أن يرفع رئيسي دعوى قضائية ضدي؟

Dear Client,

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will definitely assist you in this matter.

Article 131 of the UAE Labor Law typically requires an employer to provide an employee with a repatriation ticket upon the termination of their employment contract.

However, your situation is unique because you initially accepted the money for the ticket but then returned to the UAE for a new job.

While there isn't a specific provision stating that the employee must leave forever, your employer may argue that your return to the UAE after accepting the ticket money constitutes a breach of the agreement.

The outcome of any potential legal action would depend on the specific circumstances, agreements, and evidence involved.

For any further legal assistance, you can WhatsApp us. We have an extensive team of knowledgeable and experienced lawyers to provide the legal assistance you need.

We will definitely be happy to help you.

Thanks & Regards,

ABDUL WAHIED

Dear Questioner,

There is no such clause and there is no provision for the employer to send the employee forever to his home country.

And regarding the repatriation ticket, it's considered a benefit that the employee received for his service.

If you want further clarification, we will arrange a legal consultation session for a charge of 28$.

Share your WhatsApp number if you want to go with the services.

You have illegally used the money so it is against the law. Try to return the money back.
