Dear Questioner,

Signing someone's employment contract without their permission is a serious offense in the UAE and is considered forgery.

You can file a complaint with the MOHRE. They are responsible for overseeing labor relations in the UAE.

You can visit their nearest office or file a complaint online through their website.

If you need further clarification, kindly share your WhatsApp number.

If someone signed your employment contract without your permission, you should first try to resolve the issue directly with that person.

You can calmly explain the situation and request that they rectify their actions by either obtaining your permission to sign the contract or reversing the unauthorized signature.

If the person refuses to cooperate or if you are unable to resolve the issue with them directly, you may need to escalate the matter by filing a formal complaint with your HR department, directly with the management, or the legal department of your company.

Provide them with any evidence or documentation you have to support your claim of unauthorized signature on the contract.

If necessary, you may also want to seek legal advice to understand your rights and options for further recourse in case the company does not take appropriate action to address the unauthorized signature on your employment contract.
