One-year ban on workers who leave country without cancelling visa
By Ahmed Abdul Aziz (Our staff reporter)/KHALEEJ TIMES 3 January 2008
ABU DHABI — The workers who had left the UAE without completing the formalities for cancellation of their visas will face a one-year ban from entering the country, according to Obaid Rashid Al Zahmi, Assistant Undersecretary of the Ministry of Labour (MoL).
During the Open Day session at the MoL, Al Zahmi met around 45 people, including PROs, owners of firms and workers to find solutions to their problems.
A worker’s request to reimburse the fees charged for issuing work permit to him was rejected by Al Zahmi as he had left the company during the probation period.
When a PRO of a company demanded refund of the work permit fees and the bank guarantee, Al Zahmi said the ministry would refund any fees which the companies were forced to pay due to mistakes of the MoL staff or any system snag.
