Abu Dhabi Labour Court Orders Company to Pay AED 316,333 in Unpaid Dues
The Abu Dhabi Labour Court of First Instance ordered an unnamed company to pay AED 316,333 to a former employee in unpaid salary, leave allowance, and end-of-service gratuity. The ruling followed the employer's failure to appear in court or produce proof of payment after being legally notified. The judgment reaffirmed that under UAE labour law, the burden of proving wage payment rests on the employer.
