Uncomfortable with workload. Any liabilities upon resigning?
Q: Dear Sir/Madam, I am currently on a company visa, which began last October 2023. However, with the recent management change, I am uncomfortable with my workload. I am handling the responsibilities of three positions but receiving a low salary. Moreover, 80% of my colleagues, including management, are Russian speakers, while I am not. Many of my colleagues have minimal workloads but higher salaries. I feel exploited, discriminated against, and undervalued. If I decide to resign, are there any liabilities I need to settle with the company? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Despite contract end, employer demands work till labor card expires
Q: Hi, good day! The contract I signed in the Philippines on February 9, 2022, was set to expire by February 9, 2024.

However, she now informs me that I still need to work until March 23, 2024, as the labor card expires on that day. I entered the UAE on March 23, 2022, and the contract was signed while I was still in the Philippines. Despite this, I have already decided not to continue working for personal reasons. Could someone please explain what my options are?Feb 15, 2024
