Liability for bounced cheque of work paid accomodation

Q: Hi Naser, Got a question. My company is responsible for paying for my accommodation as it`s listed in my work contract. However, the apartment leasing contract is under my name and the 4 cheques are paid by my company. One cheque was bounced 4 months ago (the landlord sent us an email asking to pay for it and the company promised to do but couldn`t). In 1 week, the last cheque will get bounced too, due to insufficient funds and financial problem in the company. Adding to this, I got terminated last week. Can the landlord file a case against me (how much time it takes, would I receive a travel ban)? Or will they deal ONLY with the company? I can`t pay anything from my side so would they ask me to leave the apartment immediately? Can I take my furniture out or they have the right to keep it? What is the worst consequence that can happen to me? Thanks

Filing a bounced cheque case and requesting a travel ban

Q: Hi. One of my customers had taken some products on credit and gave me two cheques of AED 300000 (total AED 600K). At the due date of the cheque, the customer asked not to put the cheques in the bank as he’s short of money. When I asked for money he made some excuses. I fear he may run away from the UAE. What should I do for such a case, where I had not put the cheque in the bank for a transaction as I fear if he notices the bounced cheque he escapes from the UAE?

Entitlement towards end of service benefits

Q: Hi, I was suspended from work, and after a week they terminated me for the discrimination against a colleague, but it is unintentional discrimination; my company did not pay my EOSB. Does the company have the right for not settling my EOSB? When I asked them they said "because you`re terminated for disciplinary actions", that`s why they did not pay my EOSB. I worked with the company for 3 years and 6 months. Thanks
