In Dubai, a man has won a compensation of Dh400,000 after his company refused to pay him for 19 months. The Indian civil engineer had been working for a private company for 15 years and resigned in April this year due to non-payment of salary for over a year.
This legal victory highlights the importance of protecting workers’ rights in the UAE. The court ruling ensures that employees receive their rightful compensation even after facing extended periods of unpaid wages.
Key points of this case include:
- The engineer’s long-term employment of 15 years.
- Resignation following 19 months of unpaid salary.
- A court-ordered compensation of Dh400,000 awarded to the employee.
This case may set a precedent for similar disputes in the future and strengthens the UAE’s commitment to guaranteeing fair treatment for all workers in the country.
Many employees hope this win will encourage companies to respect their contractual obligations. The man’s long fight highlights both the challenges employees face and the possibility of achieving justice through legal avenues.
The UAE continues to improve its labour laws to protect workers better. Stay tuned to Questiqa World News for more latest updates.
