Can an employee get terminated while in sick...

We would like to inform you that UAE Labor Law has granted the employer the right to terminate the contract in accordance with article 120 if the worker is absent for seven consecutive days or twenty separate days. The UAE Labor Code also granted the worker the right to a sick leave. If the employer contravenes this, the worker may lodge a complaint at the Ministry of Human Resources and resettlement.
Here is the text of the UAE Labor Law concerning your inquiry:
Article 83
1. A worker shall not be entitled to any paid sick leave during the probationary period.
2. A worker who contracts illness after completing three months, following the probationary period, in the continuous service of an employer shall be entitled to a sick leave not exceeding 90 days, successive or otherwise, in respect of each year of service, to be calculated as follows.
• The first 15 days: with full pay.
