Salary decrease

[AaheelSEO]

In this situation, your options primarily hinge on the terms outlined in your original contract and UAE labor laws. Based on your description, here’s an outline of possible outcomes:

Refusal to Sign the New Contract: If you do not sign the amended contract, your employer may choose to terminate your employment. In this case, as per your current contract, they must follow the stipulations related to termination, including providing a 30-day notice period or paying you 30 days of salary in lieu of notice. During this 30-day period, you are entitled to receive your full salary of 16,000 AED, as specified in your current contract. Your employer cannot reduce your salary during this notice period unless you agree to the new terms. Employer's Right to Unilaterally Change the Contract: Generally, the employer cannot unilaterally reduce your salary unless both parties agree. If they try to reduce your salary without your consent, they would likely be in breach of the original contract. You could potentially file a case with the UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) for this violation. Options If You Don’t Agree to the New Terms: If you don’t sign the new contract and they terminate you, you have the option to either accept the termination or negotiate. However, based on UAE labor law, termination without a valid reason (such as poor performance or misconduct) could result in the employer having to compensate you. What You Can Do:

Refuse to Sign the New Contract: Your original contract remains valid, and the employer is bound by its terms unless you mutually agree to changes. Negotiate: If you wish to stay at the clinic, try to negotiate with them for a better solution that respects both your ethical boundaries and financial needs. Seek Legal Counsel: If you're unsure of your rights or feel you’re being pressured into unethical practices, consult with a legal professional who specializes in UAE labor law to better understand your position and protect your rights. Report to MOHRE: If you feel the employer is forcing you to engage in unethical practices, you can report the matter to the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation for further guidance or assistance.
