Employees in the UAE facing redundancy must serve their notice period. Skipping this can lead to financial penalties. Employers also have obligations regarding notice. The law applies to both employer-initiated terminations and employee resignations. Job search leave is available during the notice period. Understanding these rules ensures a smooth transition.
