Labour court procedures when the employer fails to attend the hearings

Q: Hi.
I have filed a labour case with Dubai court against my employer for the non-payment of salaries and final settlement. The amount is approximately AED 95000.
My company did not appear for any hearing in the court, and after placing two public advertisements the judge has decided judgement date to be 30 November.
Please advise what happens next.
Can my company still delay procedures?
Is it ok for me to cancel my visa after delivering the judgement and how do I get my money?

Company's appeal to a labor judgment to pay only a part of the claim
1
Q: Dear sir/madam,
I filed a case against my employer. I got my judgment but the problem is the company's appeal. So what my employer wants is, that they will pay only the EOSB that I signed with the company and not the judgment amount.
Does the employer have the right to pay only the EOSB that I signed even though I waited for almost 5 months and still not paid?
Does the employer have the right to pay me in an installment payment?
Thank you!

تم استئناف قضية وتقرر تعيين خبير مصرفي من طرف المحكمة والخبير أعطى تقريرًا بخطأ البنك وعليه رد المبلغ للمدعي، ولكن المحكمة لم تحكم لصالحي ولم تأخذ بتقرير الخبير المُعيّن من طرف المحكمة نفسها. السؤال كالآتي:
1- ماذا لو كان مبلغ المطالبة 50 ألف درهم بالضبط؟
2- أيضًا ماذا لو كان مبلغ المطالبة 50 ألف درهم (وكان في دعوى المطالبة بفائدة)؟
3- هل ستقبل المحكمة بفائدة وتعتبرها أكثر من 50 ألف؟

إعادة تقديم المطالبات من قبل العامل لدى استئناف صاحب العمل للحكم

1
س: السلام عليكم،
لدي قضية عمالي جزئي وتم الحكم فيها بمبلغ أكثر من 50 ألف بقليل بالرواتب المتبقية ومستحقات نهاية الخدمة وبدل شهر الإنذار وراتب الإجازة، والمحكمة لم تحكم لي في الفصل التعسفي لعدم وجود نتائج وآثار على المُدعي.
دخلت في مهلة الاستئناف وقبل انتهاء المدة بثلاثة أيام، استأنفت الشركة على الحكم الصادر وقدمت مستندات أغلبها تؤكد الحكم، ولكن تم تقديم الاستئناف لتطويل مدة الدعوى.
هل أستطيع إعادة المطالبة بالفصل التعسفي 3 أشهر وبدل عن غرامات تأخير الإقامة وتعويض شهرين مدة القضية؟
ولأنني لا أملك المال لتوكيل محامي فقد كتبت مذكرة على مذكرة الاستئناف، ولكن لا أعرف الصيغة القانونية لتفاصيل الوقائع والرد والجواب.
شكرًا مسبقًا واعذرني على الإطالة!

View allThe maximum notice period employers can put in the contract as per the new labor law 0
Our internal contract has a notice period of 3 months from both parties. In the new labor implementation, only one month's notice is required for less than 5 years of service.
Please advise if we can follow our internal contract since the position is very curtailed and the organization will not be able to replace the position within one month.

Dear sir/madam,
Annual leave salary calculation as per the new labor law.
Can you please clarify the correct annual leave salary rules?
Some say it is basic + HRA for the month you will take off, others say it is full salary, and somewhere I read it is basic + HRA (annual leave salary) plus the normal salary you get.
Can you please clarify?
Thanks for your valuable time and kind assistance!
