Hello
Can some-one tell me about the EoSB? I know it is 3 weeks per 12 months worked, last salary being the figure based on, but can you tell me which article or law it is and where I can find it? Really appreciate your assistance.
Yes, in order for your company to have opted OUT of the end-of-service gratuity it would have to be in your contract. Otherwise, it's there. Secondly, I don't know of any rules that say companies must give an NOC in such-and-such circumstances. It seems to be totally up to their discretion. Finally, if you have been on a family visa you don't need an NOC to re-enter after your RP is canceled/expired. Only the worker needs an NOC and he/she ALWAYS needs an NOC within the two year time frame.
I can only tell you that the Labor Law applies even if it isn't mentioned in your contract. For the other questions you should visit the Government Website. There are people here who can help you.
Does that mean they have to give the EoSB (min. 3 weeks) even if it's not mentioned in our actual contract?
Is it Law that a small non-govenment company has to give a Letter of No Objection if they end your contract 5 month before the contract finishes due to their not having work?
Also:
a) If I/we cancel our RP and leave the country without a No Objection letter, is there any restrictions on me (or our family) being allowed back into the Country on a Visitor's Visa, obtained from the airport?
b) If work cancels my RP whilst we are out of the country, and we don't have a No Objection letter, can we enter the country again on a visitors visa obtained at the airport?
Is there any site to go to and check your status of RP? How would you be notified if your RP had been cancelled?
In addition to any sums to which the worker is entitled to upon the expiry of his service, the employer shall pay the end of service gratuity to the worker who has completed employment of one year or more. This gratuity shall be agreed upon by the two parties, provided that it is not less than a three-week wage for every year of employment. The worker shall be entitled to gratuity for the fractions of the year in proportion to the duration of employment.
The worker's service shall be considered continuous if it is terminated in cases other than those stipulated in article (61) of this Law and is returned to service within two months of its termination.
The last basic wage shall be the base for the calculation of the gratuity.
The employer is entitled to deduct from the service gratuity the amount due to him by the worker.
