Dear Customer,
Thanks for joining and trusting us, much appreciated!
We would like to inform you that If your inquiry relates to an accident during work that led to the injury of the worker to you the following information:
The UAE Labor Law stipulates that the worker is entitled to compensation if the injury resulting from the accident leads to total disability or death, and that the worker is entitled to full salary during the treatment period or for six months, whichever is shorter.
Here is the text of the UAE Labor Law regarding your inquiry:
Article 144
Where a worker sustains a work-related injury or contracts an occupational disease, the employer shall pay for the cost of his treatment in a government or private local medical center until he recovers or is proven disabled. Treatment shall include costs of residence in a hospital or sanatorium, surgical operations, x-ray and medical diagnosis, the purchase of medicines and rehabilitation equipment, and the supply of artificial limbs and other prosthetic appliances for any person who is declared disabled. In addition to the foregoing, the employer shall pay the cost of any transport required in connection with the worker’s treatment.
Article 145
Where an injury prevents a worker from carrying out his work, the employer shall pay him a cash allowance equal to his full pay throughout the period of treatment or for a period of six months, whichever is shorter. Where the treatment lasts for more than six months, the allowance shall be reduced by one-half for a further period of six months or until the worker fully recovers, is declared disabled, or dies, whichever occurs first.
Article 146
The cash allowance referred to in the preceding Article shall be calculated on the basis of the last wage received (for monthly, weekly, daily or hourly paid workers), and on the basis of the average daily wage referred to in Article 57(for those paid on piecemeal basis).
Article 151
The amount of compensation payable to a worker in the event of his permanent total disability shall be the same amount as that payable in the event of his death.
