We would like to inform you that according to the UAE Labor Law, end of services is the worker right and he can claim for it once his job is done. If the employer didn't provide it then you can file a complaint in the labor office as below articles state:
Article (132):
A worker who has completed one or more years of continuous service shall be entitled to severance pay at the end of his employment. The days of absence from work without pay shall not be included in calculating the period of service. The severance pay shall be calculated as follows: 1. 21 days' wage for each of the first five years of service. 2. 30 days’ wage for each additional year of service provided always that the aggregate amount of severance pay should not exceed two year's wage.
Article (133):
A worker shall be entitled to severance pay for any fraction of a year he actually served, provided that he has completed one year of continuous service.
Article (134):
Without prejudice to the provisions of laws that grant pensions or retirement benefits to employees in certain firms, severance pay shall be calculated on the basis of the wage last due for monthly, weekly and daily paid workers, and on the basis of the average daily wage referred to in Article 57 hereof for those paid on piecemeal. The wage used as a basis for calculating severance pay shall not include whatever is given to the worker in kind, housing allowance, transport allowance, travel allowance, overtime pay, representation allowance, cashier’s allowances, children education allowance, allowances for recreational and social facilities, and any other bonuses or allowances.
Article 123
1. Where a worker is arbitrarily dismissed, the competent court may order the employer to pay him a compensation, to be assessed by the court with due regard to the nature of the work, the extent of damage sustained by the worker and his period of service, and after investigating the work circumstances, provided that such compensation shall in no case exceed the worker's wage for three months, calculated on the basis of his last wage.
2. The provisions of the preceding paragraph shall not prejudice the worker's right to the gratuity he is entitled to and the compensation in lieu of notice provided for in this law.
Article 115
Where an employment contract is for a definite term and the employer revokes it for reasons other than those specified in Article (120) he shall be required to compensate the worker for any damage the latter sustains, provided that the amount of compensation shall in no case exceed the aggregate wage due for a period of three months or the remaining period of the contract, whichever is shorter, unless otherwise stipulated in the contract.
Article (75):
A worker shall, for each year of service, be entitled to an annual leave of not less than:
1. Two days a month, where the worker’s period of service is more than six months but less than one year.
2. 30 days a year, where the worker’s period of service is more than one year.
Where a worker's service is terminated, he shall be entitled to annual leave in respect of fractions of the last year.
Therefore, it is possible to file a complaint at the labor office and claim through this authority. If it is not possible for this authority to help you, it is possible to resort to the court and obtain a court ruling against the employer and compel him to pay you.
Article 131 (repeated 1)
1. For the purpose of the preceding Article, the worker’s “repatriation expenses” refers to the value of his travel ticket as well as the travel expenses of his family and the cost of shipping of his personal effects, as stipulated in the Labour contract or the firm’s policies.
2. A worker who is provided with accommodation by his employer shall vacate it within thirty days from the date of termination of his service.
3. The worker shall not overstay in the accommodation beyond the specified period for any reason, provided, however, that the employer pays the worker the following:
• the expenses specified in paragraph 1 of this Article.
• severance pay and any other entitlements the employee is bound to pay in accordance with the employment contract, the firm’s policies, or the law.
4. if the worker contests the amount of the expenses and entitlements referred to above, the Labour Department concerned shall urgently determine these expenses and entitlements within a week from notification, and shall promptly inform the worker accordingly.
5. In this case, the thirty-day grace period referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article shall be calculated to run from the date on which the employer deposits the value of the expenses and entitlements, as determined by the Labour Departments concerned, with the Ministry of Labour’s treasury. If the worker does not vacate the accommodation within the said thirty-day period, the Labour Department, with the assistance of the authorities concerned in the Emirate, shall take the necessary administrative measures for eviction.
6. The provisions of this Article shall not prejudice the worker’s right to contest its application before the competent court.
Article 131 (repeated 2)
1. Employer shall submit to the competent labour department a bank guarantee whose type, value, submission procedures, firms and companies to whom it is applicable, and other relevant terms shall be specified in a Council of Ministers’ resolution. This guarantee shall be used to ensure optimum fulfillment of employer’s obligations provided for under Articles 131 and 131 (repeated), of this Law.
2. Deduction of any amount from the bank guarantee referred to in paragraph 1 hereof shall be based on a court judgment, with the exception of the following:
• Cost of a worker’s repatriation to his country of origin or the point agreed upon with the employer.
• The amounts that the employer admits before the competent labour court that they are due to the worker.
In these two cases, the Ministry reserves the right to deduct such entitlements from the guarantee referred to in paragraph 1 hereof and pay to the worker in fulfillment of his established dues.
Therefore, we advise you to settle with the employer and cancel the visa and get NOC to transfer the sponsorship and change the employer.
