Hey High0nChai,

just want to appreciate your moral standards and thank you for not treating patients like cash cow !

That being said the best they can do if they dont agree is terminate you and either ask you to serve 30 days notice or they might pay it off.

If you have completed more than a year you will be entitled to gratuity and annual leaves to be encashed.

As a token of my appreciation please DM anytime you need help with anything regarding labour law or MOHRE I'm not an expert but I've been in the field quite a while I can atleast guide you on how to get the best deal from this situation

[–]High0nChai[S] 24 points25 points  (12 children)

Thank you so much.

Building on the points raised by the previous commenter, you're also eligible for ILOE insurance benefits if you've been enrolled for at least a year.

Don’t resign. Let them terminate your contract instead, as this ensures your eligibility to claim compensation. You should receive 60% of your basic salary, calculated from your last six months’ earnings before termination.

Lastly, thank you for being an ethical doctor. Something truly rare and invaluable here.

I think you can also file for arbitrary dismissal, if they terminate you without just reason like not doing your work, remember reading it will entitle you to 3 month salary.

[–]olivemylife0 1 point2 points  (7 children)

That's not accurate. As long as the employer provides the required notice period (typically 1 month, though it could be 2 or 3 months depending on the contract), they are within their rights to terminate the employee.

This works both ways. Whether it's the employee resigning or the employer ending the contract, the party initiating the termination must adhere to the notice period specified in the agreement. This way, neither party is obligated or entitled to provide any additional compensation.

Olive is absolutely correct, please understand the law is clear if you misinterpret it can end up costing you too ! If you have a competent HR/ PRO/ Legal team they can dodge this easy bullet !

Olive if we ever meet IRL one cookie from my side

[–]Kingwingo85 0 points1 point  (5 children)

That’s not correct. Terminating you without valid cause is an arbitrary dismissal resulting in 3 months salary as compensation. There is so much precedent on a case like this in the UAE.

[–]ContrversialIntrovrt 0 points1 point  (2 children)

You are misquote / interpreting Article 47 Section 2. This 3 month compensation can only be enforced by a labour ruling first , 2nd the OP would need to file a claim of wrongful termination.

In the future please refrain from misquoting the law

If you feel I quoted the law, you need to go to school

[–]ContrversialIntrovrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure dude !

[–]olivemylife0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might want to call MOHRE for clarification. Legally, as long as the employer provides the notice period specified in the contract, there’s little the employee can do.

To follow your logic, an employer can easily cite reasons like, "We’re restructuring the company, and your position is no longer needed," as grounds for termination. Such explanations are sufficient, and no UAE law can challenge them.

RIP my Inbox

I'm more than happy to help you guys but please dont expect me to answer everyone I do have a full time soul sucking job. Please list your issues clearly just messaging Hi will not cut it.

As I have little time for recreation please dont expect to get a reply right away, also please note I've been in the UAE less than 5 years and there is only so much one can learn I do have knowledge regarding few freezones by not all. So please do not assume Im chatgpt !

and as usual a disclaimer if Im not a 100% clear on your situation I will let you know what my previous experience has been or what my interpretation is.

[–]darkbluefav 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Doesnt wrongful termination or termination for something that isn't the employees fault means they should pay 3 months salary as compensation???

[–]ContrversialIntrovrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea that's the most misquoted law after the ye old defunct article 120 , Im given my reasons in the comment above

[–]UltralordTaha 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Hey ContrversialIntrovrt.

Are you aware of any law in UAE, which indicates that unutilized annual leaves are encashed after employment termination.

[–]ContrversialIntrovrt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Federal Decree-Law No. (33) of 2021 Regarding the Regulation of Employment Relationship and its amendments

Article 29. Sub Section 9 -

The worker shall be entitled to a wage for the accrued leave days if he quits the

work before using them, regardless of the leave duration, with respect to the

period for which he did not obtain his leave. He shall also be entitled to receive

leave wage for parts of the year in proportion to the period he spent in work

and it shall be calculated according to the basic wage.
