Appealing a judgement of paying half labour dues and claiming full pay
Q: I`ve filed a case against my ex-employer (Bahrain) for my indemnity and EOS. The lower court gave a verdict in my favour and around 40% of the total money which I claimed. Then the case was transferred to the high court and was again in my favour with the same amount. It means the employer has to pay me around 40% only of the total amount. This verdict came 3 months before and my lawyer keeps saying that till now he didn`t get a full judgment so he doesn`t know the actual amount. And now, he is saying the amount is the same which the judge wrote in the verdict i.e. 40% of the amount. I have all proofs where my employer said that they have to pay me the full amount. Now please guide me on what I should do. My lawyer is saying that we can`t do anything, this is the final decision. This means, I won the case but actually I lose. Can I challenge this decision?

Filing a labor case to claim pending dues
Q: I completed my two-year contract in a construction company. I`d like to change the company because my current company is not paying salaries for the last 5 months and does not allow for a vacation. I got another job and I informed my current employer about that. The next day they renewed my visa and said to continue here and promised that on July 1st I can go for a vacation and the pending salaries will be paid before that. But still, they didn`t send me and tell me next week. I am waiting for the vacation for the last 2 months. The main thing is that my father is sick in India and I informed them also but still they are doing this. Two days ago I went to the office to see my manager and ask for my passport and I said I want to continue. He said that we will decide once you come back and promised within two days. 1) If they failed to keep the promise, what action can I take against them? I don`t like to continue here anymore. 2) I am worried that if they send me on a vacation, they will cancel my visa. What can I do from India? Questions & Answers
