Salary deduction and the procedure of disciplinary actions
Q: Recently, there was a change in the management of our company and my new manager didn`t like the way I look. He told me about it and warned me that next time I will be fined. After a week or so, I received a notice that I`m fined of AED 500 for the unprofessional appearance. I work for the company for a long time and I`ve never had such a kind of complaints before. I believe that my appearance is appropriate. Moreover, there is no strict dress code in our company and I`ve never seen and never signed any papers in this regard. Does my manager have the right to decide how I look? Is this penalty legal? Do they have the right to deduct it from my salary?Mar 3, 2016
