"My employer is not honouring my salary and now wants to slash it by half," 2 May 2020
When I joined my company, I signed an offer letter but later on I noticed the employment contract was different... On the labour contract, my basic salary is Dh600 but on the offer letter it was Dh1,400 per month... [my employer] does not want to pay me and even wants to reduce my salary by 50 per cent. I want to quit my job but she is stopping me as she has my passport...
No employee should be treated in this manner and the employer is not acting fairly...
I urge IO to register a case with MoHRE against the company for: the salary cuts, the excessive hours, the passport retention and potentially arbitrary dismissal.
