Can you file a labor case for holding EOSB without affecting your new job?

Q: My son works in an education provider company in Dubai. He started the job on 22 November 2018. He is resigning on 06 June 2022. The company told him that they need 3 months notice period. So he completed it. Now even though the company is enormously profitable, they are not ready to pay his gratuity. His take-home salary is 4250 but his basic salary is shown as AED 500 (which is notoriously low). As per my calculation, he is eligible to get AED 1300 at least, but the company says they will not pay and he has to sign a no-dues certificate. They said if he did not sign, they are telling him they will not hand over his degree certificate (again holding illegally without any proof) and the last month`s salary. My son worked so hard for them and he really deserves that settlement. What will he do in this situation? If we file a complaint in the labor court, does this become an issue for his new job joining?

Labor rights of the employee in case of termination after completing one year

Q: Hi Ma`am This is about my husband getting terminated in Dubai. He has been terminated on the grounds of misbehavior which is a false allegation by the employer. He has completed 1 year period at the company. The employer has filed a labor complaint against my husband. I`m not much aware of the labor law of Dubai. Can you please let me know if my husband is entitled to the 3 months salary along with the vacation pay as he just completed his 1 year in the company? The contract my husband signed doesn`t have anything mentioned as 3 months` pay but does have the vacation pay after completing 1 year. But will he be entitled to it even if he is terminated?
