How can I claim my unpaid gratuity after completing two years of work?

Dear Client,

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

If your visa was canceled in May 2024 after completing two years of work, you are entitled to receive your end-of-service gratuity as per UAE labor law.

The employer is legally required to pay this gratuity within 14 days from your last working day. Since you mentioned that the gratuity has not been paid, you should formally request it from your employer.

If they refuse to pay, you can file a complaint with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MoHRE) or seek legal advice to pursue the matter further.

It's important to keep records of all communications regarding your gratuity claim.

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

We will be happy to help you.

Thanks & Regards,

ABDUL WAHIED

Hello,

If your previous employer has failed to pay your gratuity after the cancellation of your visa, this is a violation of UAE Labour Law.

You are entitled to end-of-service gratuity under Article 51 of Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 unless you were terminated for gross misconduct as per Article 44.

The first step is to file a complaint with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) to claim your unpaid gratuity.

The Ministry will mediate to resolve the dispute. If the issue is not resolved amicably, it will be referred to the Labour Court.

If you need assistance in filing the claim or representing you in the legal process, please feel free to contact me at [----------], and I will provide you with professional support to recover your rightful dues.

Dear Questioner,

Good morning!

If your visa was canceled in May 2024 after completing 2 years of work and your previous employer has not paid your gratuity, you are entitled to claim the unpaid amount. Here's what you can do:

1. File a Labour Complaint:

You can file a labour complaint with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE). The complaint should include the details of your employment, the unpaid gratuity, and your visa cancellation.

2. Gather Evidence:

Collect all relevant documents, such as your employment contract, salary slips, and any communication with the employer regarding gratuity. These will be crucial for your claim.

3. Legal Action:

If the employer fails to pay your gratuity even after filing a complaint, you may pursue legal action to recover the dues. If the employer disputes the claim, the case will be referred to court for resolution.

As specialists in handling labour disputes, we can assist you in recovering your gratuity in record time.

For further assistance, feel free to contact us.

Your visa cancellation in May 2024 does not affect your right to claim unpaid gratuity from your previous employer.

UAE labor law mandates that employers pay gratuity to employees who have completed at least one year of service.

If your employer refuses to pay, file a complaint with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (MOHRE).

If you need further clarification, you may ask us.

Dear questioner,

We can file a complaint with MOHRE regarding the same, and if they still do not release the gratuity, we can escalate the complaint to the Labor Court.

Please initiate the proceedings before the limitation period lapses.

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

You are likely entitled to receive gratuity after two years of service despite your visa cancellation.

Actual payment will depend on local labor laws and company policies.

It is crucial to take proactive steps in seeking this payment through appropriate channels.
