Is it necessary to get the letter of clearance from a bank notarized as a proof for the future?
Q: I am a UK-based citizen aiming to negotiate a settlement on a UAE liability with a large bank.

How to claim my EOSB if I moved with the same company from the UAE to Germany?
Q: I moved from the UAE to Germany under the same company after working 7 years in service in Dubai. Before I moved, I asked for my gratuity. The company refused because it seems that the gratuity is payable on termination only, not on transfer within the same company. The company asked me to sign a letter to waiver my gratuity in exchange for "years of seniority" in Germany of the same years that I served in Dubai. Did I make a mistake when I signed that letter? Is this normal? "Years of seniority" means nothing actually. Questions & Answers

Can the employer put a ban on me if I resign during probation to take another offer?
Q: Good morning, I have a question regarding a new offer letter, that I received in March 2022 (after the new labor law has come into effect in February 2022). I have joined a new company and the offer letter states it is an UNLIMITED contract, although I understand that this type of contract does not exist anymore under the new labor law. So in case of resignation during the probation period, and in general, does the new labor law apply or the contract that I signed? Also, do I get a labor ban when I resign during the probation period (my position is Sales Executive)? Thank you Questions & Answers
