Yes, the employee can lose his/her gratuity entitlement only if he/she breaches the employment contract in a manner that allows the employer (company) to terminate the worker for cause mentioned in UAE Labour Law Article 120, the other reason when an employee can lose his end of service benefits are:

·       If employee breaches the limited contract

10,000 AED Reward:
As covered by Gulf News and other news websites, people in Dubai were encouraged to report their absconding maids to the authorities as they can be rewarded with 10,000 AED of compensation if the maid is found to be working for a different employer, an official said.

The compensation is applicable if maid found working with another employer.

Fine for hiring illegal workers:

People hiring maids who have absconded from their original employers will face a fine of 50,000 AED while hiring an illegal worker or maid will incur a 100,000 AED fine and a jail term.

Major General Al Merri said: “His department was conducting a survey of maids who had worked legally for families in Dubai for many years to find out how they had managed to stay with the same family for such a long time.

He more added: "I have noticed that domestic helpers from the Philippines are the main ones who work for the same family for many years".

Mr AL MERRI said "This is the second meeting we have organized with our domestic helpers at the department in order to encourage them to give their best, we are here to listen to them and to listen to their issues and problems, we have to appreciate their work and efforts,"

In-order to protect domestic workers in UAE, we urged them to know more about their rights, contract terms, working hours as per UAE domestic labour law and share it as much as they can so everyone know their rights.

Motor comprehensive insurance also known as full insurance is a complete safety package for car owner which includes all types of damages to the car either due to road accident, theft or fire. It also covers and pays to the third party if you’re involved in a road accident.

How to choose best insurance plan?

who does not want cheap and best insurance for their car? before buying insurance in UAE consider your expectations and needs as per your car model.

If you owned old models (used cars) we will suggest you to buy third-party insurance which approximately cost you around 700 AED but if you are going to drive zero kilometer or luxury car you must go for comprehensive insurance plan (full insurance) as in-case of accident or damage to the vehicle, the repairing or buying parts for new cars will be expensive.
