Working during Eid Al Adha? Find out what compensation you'll receive
Image generated by AI for creative and illustrative purposes As the UAE's four-day Eid Al Adha holiday begins on Thursday, June 5, 2025, many wonder what happens if they are required to work during this public holiday. According to Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021, Article 28, private sector employees are entitled to specific compensation for working on official holidays. Public holiday leave and compensation Article 28 clearly states: Workers are entitled to official days off with full pay on public holidays, which are determined by the Cabinet's resolution. If an employee works during any public holiday, the employer must compensate them by either: Granting another day off for each day worked, or Paying the wage for that day plus at least a 50% increase on the basic daily wage. This law applies to all employees regardless of category or grade, as long as the employer has requested or required the employee to work during the holiday with permission. Senior Associate at Al Suwaidi and Company, Suneer Kumar, explained to Gulf News: 'Article 28 of UAE Labour Law No. 33/2021 is applicable to all employees – irrespective of categories or grade – provided that the employer requested the employer to work or the work requirement necessitates the employee, with permission, to work during the public holidays. [Then the] employer will compensate them with another day of rest, in exchange for every day of holiday, or the employee will be paid the wages in respect of that day and will additionally be paid an excess of not less than 50 per cent of the basic salary for that day. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo ' How to file a labour complaint If workers feel their rights are not being respected, or they have concerns about compensation for working on public holidays, they can contact the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE).

When misused, law becomes sword instead of shield: Karnataka high court
Bengaluru: The high court has quashed the proceedings in a five-year-old criminal case filed against a real estate developer by a business partner under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. "The courts must remain vigilant against the weaponisation of criminal law for settling civil disputes. The law, when misused, ceases to be a shield and becomes a sword. The complainant, to wreak vengeance or arm-twist the petitioner over a financial dispute, made use of the criminal justice system," Justice M Nagaprasanna stated while quashing the case against Vilas Bhormalji Oswal. Vilas, from Solapur, Maharashtra, established a partnership with Somashekara from Bengaluru and others for purchasing and developing agricultural land. Disputes arose in 2020 when Vilas refused to sign certain documents, hampering the development projects. Somashekara claimed that during a Dec 2020 meeting in a playground in Jayanagar, Vilas threatened him and made caste-based remarks. A complaint was filed with the Directorate of Civil Rights Enforcement in April 2021. Three years later, police registered an FIR, followed by a chargesheet. Vilas contested the chargesheet and summons in the high court, highlighting significant delays throughout the case. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Esta nueva alarma con cámara es casi regalada en Libertad (ver precio) Verisure Undo He maintained that he said "do not show your caste mindset" during their disagreement. While Somashekara argued that Vilas knew his scheduled caste status and made caste-specific insults, Justice Nagaprasanna found no evidence of casteist slurs in the initial complaint. The judge noted that witness statements on the Dec 2020 incident were recorded only in March 2024, with the case registered in April 2024. The court found significant discrepancies between the original complaint and the chargesheet, particularly regarding caste-related allegations. "The subject complaint is a blade of vengeance, cloaked in the garb of law. A criminal trial, if permitted to proceed on the glaring facts, would amount to an egregious abuse of legal machinery and would undoubtedly result in patent injustice," the judge observed while quashing the proceedings against Vilas.

No question of review of satcom spectrum recommendation based COAI's reax: TRAI sources
New Delhi, Telecom Regulatory Authority of India ( TRAI ) on Wednesday categorically ruled out any review of recommendations on satcom spectrum at this stage, based on industry body COAI 's claims. Sources in TRAI told PTI that the regulator has already given its recommendations to the government "after following the due consultation process exhaustively and transparently". All stakeholders were given adequate opportunity to represent their viewpoint during the consultation process, they said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like War Thunder - Register now for free and play against over 75 Million real Players War Thunder Play Now Undo There is no question of review of the recommendations at this stage based on reactions of the Cellular Operators' Association of India (COAI), TRAI sources said. The comments assume significance as COAI - whose members include Reliance Jio and Airtel - has approached the telecom department to raise concerns over TRAI recommendations on the satcom spectrum, claiming that "incorrect assumptions" have led to unjustifiably low spectrum charges for satellite services relative to terrestrial networks . Live Events In a letter dated May 29, COAI claimed that TRAI's recommendations are based on incorrect assumptions and that their implementation will hit the sustainability of terrestrial services, which form the foundation of India's digital infrastructure. COAI has urged the Department of Telecom (DoT) to form a committee to "undertake a comprehensive review of the recommendations in their entirety, ensuring the process is guided by principles of fairness, transparency, and equity and also give an opportunity to TSPs (telcos) to share their views regarding the same". The industry body argued that the recommendations provide a regulatory advantage to commercial Non-Geostationary Orbit (NGSO) satellites against terrestrial broadband service providers and, if accepted by the DoT in their present form, will undermine competition and create a non-level playing field. COAI said that TRAI's recommendations do not appear to address the most fundamental and contentious issue -- the lack of a level-playing field between terrestrial service providers and satellite operators serving the same market. "The said recommendations are based on incorrect assumptions and implementation of these recommendations will impact the sustainability of terrestrial services that form the foundation of India's digital infrastructure," the association had said. The telecom regulator last month suggested that satellite communication companies like Starlink pay four per cent of their adjusted gross revenue (AGR) as spectrum charges to the government. Operators offering satellite-based broadband internet services in urban areas would have to shell out an additional Rs 500 per subscriber annually. No additional levy would be applicable for services in rural areas. COAI also argued that the recommendation of a spectrum charge at four per cent of AGR is without justification. "It is well known and TRAI would surely be fully aware that with the advent of next-generation NGSO broadband services -- including low Earth orbit (LEO) and medium Earth orbit (MEO) constellations -- satellite services are now capable of directly substituting and competing with terrestrial fixed and mobile broadband networks," COAI said.
