A labour ban imposed by a company in UAE for an employee who
has not completed one year with the current employer can ask for removal of ban.
The current immigration law states that since an employee has
not completed one year with the current employer, the company or sponsor may put
a six month ban for the employee to work in UAE and will not get a new work permit
until he has completed the six month ban. You may get a six month labour ban if
you have not completed one year in a work permit.
The period you have worked with the employer on tourist visa
or
short-term visit visa shall not be taken into consideration. Employees are
not permitted to work on a tourist or visit visa and are illegal in accordance
with Article 13 of the Federal Law No. 8 of 1980.
UAE Labour law states that the expatriates should get prior
approval of the department and a work permit from the Ministry of Labour and
Social Affairs to work in the UAE.
However if the company or sponsor imposes a ban, it could be
waived by the labour department to you on the basis of your qualification provided
that such qualification documents are duly attested by
public notary and
legalised from the country where you have obtained such qualification.
In case an employment ban for six months is imposed, the employee
may contact the Ministry of Labour to lift the ban based on your qualification.
We conclude that if you resign from the company by giving
them a one month notice; you will get a six–month labour ban in UAE unless you
have completed one year on their work permit. You may able to lift the ban as
per the decision of concerned department. You will be able to visit UAE during
this period through a tourist visa or short-term visit visa.
