كيفية تحصيل المستحقات العمالية بعد التنفيذ والحجز بدون فائدة

س: السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته، عملت بشركة للنقل والمقاولات بأبوظبي لمدة 14 عامًا. منذ سنة ونصف تركت العمل بسبب تأخُّر ست رواتب ورفعت قضية ضد الشركة وربحتها ووضعت الحكم في التنفيذ. حجزنا عليهم وحررنا طلبات ضبط وإحضار ولكن بدون فائدة. منذ حوالي ثلاثة أشهر حولت المحكمة القضايا إلى قضية جماعية لأكثر من 200 شخص وإلى الآن لم نستفد شيء. الحجوزات موجودة والشركة ذات مسؤولية محدودة وهي تعمل وتأتيها دفعات لكن للأسف الدفعات لا تنزل في حسابات الشركة المعروفة لدى المحكمة. انتهت إقامتي وأنا مخالف ولم أجد عمل منذ أكثر من سنة وضاقت الأحوال. كلما اتصلت بالمحكمة يخبروني أنهم نفذوا الإجراءات ولا توجد أموال في الملف التنفيذي. ماذا بعد كل هذا؟ نحن عالقون بالبلد والشركة لا تبالي! إلى متى الانتظار؟ وشكرًا!

What can you do against bank harassment when you are paying on time?

Q: Hi I have a credit card from a finance company and I have an outstanding of 10k. I am paying every month on time but from the month of March 2022, the collection department is calling me and being rude to me.

Can the employer file counter criminal or civil cases against a labor case by the employee?

Q: Hi, My query is that my husband and his 3 colleagues won a criminal case that was filed against them by their employer accusing them of theft and cheating. The employer has not paid full salary and gratuity and has harassed them a lot for 18 months. My husband and his colleagues want to claim everything by filing a case in labor court. Are there any chances that the employer can file any other case in civil court against them? The Dubai court has already dropped all the criminal charges that were put by him on my husband. Can they move forward with filing the other case in labor court? Is there any risk from the employer?

Q: Assalamu Alaikum, In 2019, I rented a studio in Al Ain for a short term with a fixed monthly rent payment. I was paying every month by 4 months.
