As Eid ul Fitr nears, UAE workers can be asked to work but are entitled to either a compensatory day off or at least 50% extra pay on top of their regular wage. This ensures businesses can operate during peak periods while protecting employee rights. Uncompensated work is a violation, with recourse through the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation.
