Here are the steps on how to file a labour complaint in the UAE

 Identify the Labour Law violation. The first step is to identify the specific Labour Law violation that you are experiencing. This can be done by reviewing the UAE Labour Law or by consulting with a lawyer.


Gather evidence. Once you have identified the violation, you will need to gather evidence to support your complaint. This evidence could include documents, such as your employment contract, salary slips, or termination letter. It could also include witness statements or recordings.

File a complaint with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE). You can file a complaint with MOHRE online, by mail, or in person at one of their offices. You will need to provide your personal information, the details of the violation, and any supporting evidence.

Mediate the complaint. MOHRE will attempt to mediate the complaint between you and your employer. This process is voluntary, and both parties must agree to participate. If mediation is successful, a settlement agreement will be reached.

File a case with the Labour Court. If mediation is unsuccessful, you can file a case with the Labour Court. The Labour Court is an independent body that will hear your case and issue a ruling.

Here are some additional tips for filing a labour complaint in the UAE:

Be clear and concise in your complaint. The MOHRE and the Labour Court will need to understand the details of your complaint in order to take action.

Provide supporting evidence. The more evidence you can provide to support your complaint, the stronger your case will be.

Be patient. The process of filing a labour complaint can take time. Be patient and persistent, and you will eventually get justice.

I hope this helps!
