Topic: Comparison of Labor Law of UAE and US
Introduction:
One of the enormous successes that policymakers in these areas have undertaken is the
development of work regulation in the United Arab Emirates. In terms of the specialists'
restrictions, the law is quite clear. There are two types of agreements between a company and its
employees: limited and unlimited agreements. Understanding the country's labor regulations is
essential for anybody operating in the United Arab Emirates. It plays an important role in
answering queries about yearly leave, working hours, and other business-related issues. When
compared to the UAE, the work relationship in the United States has less restrictions. Aside from
the guarantee of hours and salaries and segregation or limitation, the gatherings are authorized to
organize and prepare the agreements of their connection (Lagahid, 2015). The purpose of this
presentation is to explore the UAE Labor Law and its implementation, as well as to provide a
comparison to the US Work Law.
In terms of contract agreements, US labor law differs significantly from that of the UAE.
For an individual to be seen as a representative, the individual has most likely been affiliated
with a commercial arrangement. In the United States, there are two types of agreements: labor
voluntarily and aggregate haggling understanding. Voluntary commercial agreements can be
terminated uninhibitedly by either party for any or no reason, and the national, state, and local
legislation all accept the legality of such an arrangement. Unless the agreement specifies a
different form of connection, a worker is often believed to be in the arrangement against their
choice. In any instance, when a company and a representative enter into an agreement, both are
bound by the terms of that agreement. Work in the United States is identified by one or more
persons working in the general or private sector - in such a scenario, the individual can fill in as a
self-employed entity or as a worker and can choose to work or not work on additional time.
In the United States, the Fair Labor Standards Act lays out the base age for
business, the quantity of hours worked, and the pay for those younger than 18. The suggestions
vacillate contingent upon the singular's age (Meerkotter, 2021). The regulation lays out the base
age for work in the United States as 15 years of age and orders the quantity of hours such a kid
should work. Minors are not allowed to work in perilous regions like driving and unearthing,
among others. On account of females, the issue of irregularity in pay has filled in the United
States. Regardless of the way that the Equal Pay Act precludes any sort of exploitation of ladies,
especially as far as installment, the United States is encountering an absence of regulation that
can help with guaranteeing that moms and ladies who are utilized are remunerated similarly as
their male partners. In the United States, ladies are permitted to work in the nights.
How Laboure’s are protected in the United States is nearly identical to how they are
protected in the UAE. For example, the Fair Labor Standards Act is made up of criteria
pertaining to the labor of persons under the age of 19. The purpose is to protect young people's
prosperity and strength in the United States. The Act specifies employment restrictions for those
under the age of 19, as well as the hours they must work and the occupations they must direct.
The Act was devised to ensure that workers are free of perceived hazards. The Act also addresses
the 'Informant Protection Program,' which assures that firms cannot retaliate through hostile acts
against an individual specialist who may have disclosed security concerns, wounded, or any
other protected activity.
Termination of employment:
The UAE Labor Law states that workers are entitled to be rewarded when they leave the
employment after three months, including stipends and compensation. Ending is legally
permissible if the representative is still inside the first 90 days of the agreement. In any instance,
if the worker terminates the business contract, the UAE Labor requires the representative to pay
the firm half of the three months' compensation (Blanton, 2019). Concerning unlimited
agreements, the connection between the company and the representative is terminated when the
two of them reach an agreement to terminate the agreement or when one of the parties chooses to
terminate the arrangement and the other party commends the commitment. Under certain
situations, the representative or management may terminate the agreement without notifying the
next party. Erratic termination occurs when a supervisor authorizes a worker to leave or excuses
that individual for no justifiable cause - in any instance, this can be challenged in court and is a
violation of Article 121 of the UAE Labor Law.
If an individual loses a job in the United States, the individual has a few rights, for
example, the right to joblessness compensation or the choice to continue with the wellness
inclusion (Marciukaityte, 2018). However, under U.S. Work Laws, when a company contract is
terminated, a few representatives and their nuclear families who lose their medical benefits in the
process might choose to continue with the benefits provided by the gathering wellness Centre for
a limited period. Representatives are protected by the Equal Employment Opportunity Act,
which prohibits any sort of separation.
Conclusion:
To sum up, a few game plans of UAE and US work rules have been examined previously.
A piece of the distinctions between the two were because of the arrangement prerequisite. As
recently expressed, work in the UAE depends on two kinds of arrangements: confined and
boundless, with agents limited by limited arrangements having the choice to end the plan
following two years. This isn't equivalent to the limitless arrangement, in which an agent is
simply expected to give the organization one month's notification. In the United States, the
business and the representative can frame arrangements, however they should not abuse US work
regulation. Different worries tended to in this article were the impediments of youngsters and
ladies working in the UAE and the United States, as well as the security necessities in the work
environment, among others. Accordingly, the Labor Law supports the arrangement of a
connection between the business and the delegate, as well as the foundation of a quiet working
environment.
