Dubai UAE - Termination of Employment Contract

When the contract is terminated?

It is terminated in the following cases:
- If both parties agree on its termination, provided that the worker's consent is given in writing.
- If the limited contract expires, unless tacitly or expressly extended.
- If the employer resigned the worker or the worker submitted his resignation in the unlimited contracts, provided that each of them shall notify the other according to the law.


I worked with the employer for two years and my contract is limited by (3) years and I obtained a work opportunity at another place ... Is the employer entitled to deduct (45) from my dues for non- completion of the contract of employment?

According to What has been mentioned into these questions:

In all cases and according to the article (116):
If the contract of the worker is with a limited period and he submitted his resignation before expiry of the contract without the reasons provided for in article (121)., the worker shall compensate the employer for What he has sustained from damage sue to revocation of the contract through compensating the employer by half of remuneration of the last three months or the remaining period from the contract , or whichever closer , unless otherwise provided for by the contract.

* Example: a worker with a limited period contract for (3) years .. he worker two years and ( 11) months … and he submitted his resignation , here, he shall compensate the employer by a half of remuneration of the last three months or the remaining period from the contract , or whichever closer from them , unless otherwise provided for in the contract.


My contract is a limited and it has not been expired yet , may I submit my resignation and serve for one moth of notice ?

As for the limited contracts, there is no one month of notice … because the one month notice is for the unlimited contract .. therefore , the worker shall compensate the employer by a half of remuneration of the last three months or the remaining period from the contract , or whichever closer from them , unless otherwise provided for in the contract. * Example : a limited contract started from 4/3/2005 and expires on 3/ 3/ 2008 , and the worker submitted his resignation in 5/6/ 2006 .. here, the worker shall compensate the employer by a half of remuneration of the last three months or the remaining period from the contract , or whichever closer from them , unless otherwise provided for in the contract.
