Abu Dhabi court orders company to pay Dh110,400 in unpaid wages
An Abu Dhabi labour court has ordered a company to pay an employee Dh110,400 in unpaid wages after it delayed his start date and did not let him begin work, Khaleej Times reported. The First Instance Court said the amount covered four months and 18 days of salary. The man had signed a fixed-term contract that offered a basic salary of Dh7,200 and a total package of Dh24,000 per month. He filed a case asking for his pay from 11 November 2024 to 7 April 2025. According to court documents, the company kept delaying his start date, leaving him without pay during that period. A representative of the company appeared in court, submitted a defence, and asked that the case be transferred to the proper division. The court found that 'it was clear from the wage report, the employment contract, and the supporting documents submitted through the case management system that the delay in starting work was due to the employer,' Khaleej Times quoted from the ruling. The court also referred to the law, saying employers must pay wages on time. It said that wages are a worker's right and cannot be withheld without clear proof, such as a written waiver. The company argued that the man did not report to work and went on leave. But the court found no proof of this, saying there was no formal investigation into any absence. The man admitted to taking eight days off, which the court deducted from the final amount.

Man gets ₹26 lakh for unpaid salary without working for even a day; company loses case in court
An Abu Dhabi court has ordered a company to pay a man Dh110,400 ( ₹ 26 lakh) for unpaid wages. The man was hired but never allowed to start work. He filed a case asking for salary from 11 November 2024 to 7 April 2025. His contract promised a basic salary of Dh7,200 ( ₹ 1.70 lakh) and a total monthly pay of Dh24,000 ( ₹ 5.65 lakh). But, the company kept delaying his joining date without paying him, according to the Khaleej Times. The company's lawyer asked the court to move the case to another department. However, the court found that the delay was the employer's fault, based on salary records and contract documents. The UAE court ruled in favour of the employee, saying wages must be paid on time as per the Labour Law. The law clearly states that a worker's salary is their right and cannot be held back unless the worker has officially agreed to it or the company has legal proof, according to the publication. In this case, the employer claimed the worker didn't report to duty and took leave. However, the court found no proper investigation to support this claim. The employee admitted to taking eight days off, which were deducted. The court ordered a salary payment for four months and 18 days. In an earlier story, a Spanish government worker, Joaquín Garcia, reportedly skipped work for at least six years, maybe even 14 years, while still receiving his salary. The truth came out in 2010, when he was about to get an award for long and faithful service to the city of Cadiz. The 69-year-old engineer had worked for the local government since 1990. In 1996, he was sent to the city's water department to oversee a sewage treatment plant. But, according to reports, he had not shown up to work for years.

I thought, where is this man? Has he retired? Has he died?' the deputy mayor, Jorge Blas Fernandez, later told El Mundo.
