Dear friends
kindly advice and and help me to go to Labour Court

I have an issue with my employer who forces me to work 11 hours and gives me 8 hours salary.

I was working 11 hours and聽 get paid 8 hours salary till may 2020. I went for vacation in June 2020 for my wife delivery and came back in November 2020 with my wife and聽 newborn. My wife is a nurse in PSMMC riyadh that is why only we could come back after vacation on medical staff flights. We couldnt bring my mother to take care of the baby as Saudi stopped stamping new visas then.

So I requested my company to give me 9 hours duty as I have to reach in home to take care of the baby before my wife leave for work. They allowed it but reduced my salary from 2500/- to 1700/-.( have bank proof)聽 Which is unfair but is had no other go so I continued there without talking a word.

But now they are forcing me to work 11 hours or they will Exit me. I have got final order to work 11 hours from 1.06.2021. 7 more days left. If I go exit I cant come back as there are no flights from India. I requested聽 then release but they are not ready to give. Also not ready to give 9 hours duty as well even after knowing my situation. I really cant go exit now as my wife and baby here

2 more points, firstly, I have not received salary of August 2019 and December 2019

Secondly, I have forced to pay 6000 SAR for not working for 5 months ( June 2020 to November October 2020) as I was stuck in India due to no flights but not received the receipt but I have all proof of they ask me money in whats app

After all these humiliating now they force me to go exit or 11 hours work.

I would like to approach Labour court in 5 days. Is there any one here can help me ?

If you have solid proofs then you can go there.
If you have no hard proof then do not go there, it will cost you.

Do contact a legal advisor/advocate before going to put any case against your company.
