my son has absconded due to company bad policy...

Article 128 also states that in limited contract cases, if absconding has been reported by an employer, the employee cannot work in the country for a year from the time of reporting. No employer is allowed to hire or retain this person legally during this period either. 

Employers are given three months' time to report absconding cases and if proven MOHRE could impose a one-year labour and/or immigration ban on the employee. The employee also has a chance to prove he wasn't absconding in such cases.

The UAE rules have made it clear that employers are not entitled to hold back the passports of the employees unless for administrative purposes
However, based on the judicial precedence of that case, it is now very easy for employees to get a court order for the release of their passport through the police
