استخدام شعار مؤسسة على منتج بدون إذن

س: السلام عليكم، وجدت منتجًا يُباع في السوق عليه شعار مؤسستي وشعار المنشأة المُصنِّعة لهذا المنتج. لم يتم إعلامي بعملية البيع من قبل هذه المنشأة، مع العلم أنني كنت أتواصل مع صاحب المنشأة لحل إشكالية معينة ولكنه يتذرع بحجج بشكل مستمر. اشتريت من هذا المنتج ومعي الإيصال، وللأسف المنتج ليس بجيد كما هي بقية المنتجات، وسيجعل شعاري عرضة للإساءة. كيف لي مقاضاة هذه المنشأة؟ وهل هناك تعويض؟ بارك الله فيكم!

Can the company change the proportion of basic salary to gross salary?

Q: Dear Madam, Our management has decided to change the salary structure where we used to pay 60% of Gross Salary as Basic Salary. Now the management wants to change the basic salary of employees to 40% and the remaining amount to be included as other allowance. There will not be any decrease in the salary but there will be a change in the basic salary percentage, is this allowed in the UAE (Our company is in Dubai, a mainland company, sole establishment)? Is it legal to take this step? If yes, then under which article can the change take place? Do we need to settle gratuity based on the current basic salary and revise the contract or we can just change the basic as we are not reducing the gross salary? Please advise.

What are the taxes in the UAE for working remotely with an overseas company?

Q: I wish to get a remote work visa, explained here. Is this enough to change my current permanent place of living when it comes to paying taxes? Since every person is obligated to pay taxes in the country where he lives or stays for more than 183 days. I wish to receive my salary from my EU companies to a personal bank account in the UAE. Are there any taxes in the UAE for me when it comes to salary, and will I get taxed for the capital income my company in the EU makes? Finally, from what I understood, there is no need to get any freelancer permits or anything else with this visa type and this type of income (paying salary to myself from my own EU company). Is that correct?
