Good afternoon,

We would like to inform you that the main point in the implementation of the employment contract is the terms of this contract committed by the employer and the worker and therefore if the contract stipulates that its term is indefinite, then the stipulated provisions of the indefinite contract in Article 117 of the UAE Labor Law applies, which as follows:

Article (117):

1. Either the employer or the worker may terminate an indefinite term contract for a valid reason at any time following its conclusion, by giving the other party a notice in writing at least 30 days prior to termination.

2. For the daily-paid workers, the notice period shall be as follows:

• One week: if the worker has been employed for more than six months but less than one year.

• Two weeks: if the worker has been employed for not less than one year.

One month: if the worker has been employed for not less than five year.

We would like to inform you that you have been answered regarding the approved contract to determine labor rights and we advise you to submit your problem to the Labor Office to help you legally.
