What countersuit can be filed against an employer for a false absconding case?
Hello,
What countersuit can I file against an employer who filed a false absconding case against an employee?
Hello,
Under UAE law, if an employer files a false absconding case, the employee has the right to file a compensation claim for damages and also submit a complaint to the Ministry of Human Resources (MOHRE) to prove the malicious intent of the report.
Our legal center specializes in such cases, and you can contact us on WhatsApp for further legal support and to take the necessary action to protect your rights.
Dear questioner,
You should state and prove that you completed the notice period mentioned in the MOHRE contract if you were terminated, or provide witnesses showing your presence at work, or that your absence was with the employer’s consent.
These will be the best defenses against the false absconding case.
