Six years of service, no pay for five months: What are my legal options?
Good day,
My contract ended yesterday. I have been working with them for six years. I have not taken my annual leave for this year.
Am I entitled to get my paid annual leave?
In addition, I still have four months of unpaid salary with them. For two of those months, we signed a letter stating that they could not provide a salary due to the company's situation, which we understood.
However, my manager told me that she would give me the salary in cash because I was working during those two months.
For the other two months that they did not give us our salary, they asked us to sign photocopied copies of a salary slip just to show that we had already been paid.
We signed them because they were only photocopies and they told us that they needed them to settle things with MOHRE/labor.
In total, including this month, I am owed five months of salary.
