Answer to the first question:

Question # 1. Under the UAE labor law, there are mainly two types of employment contracts in which employers can enter into the employment contract with the employees.

The first type is of limited-term contract: The limited-term as is clear from its name that this type of contract is for a limited term and usually the standard term of such contracts is for 2 years. If there is no notice from the employer clearly stating their intention not to renew the contract to the employee on contract, then it would be renewed automatically for the original period for which the contract. There are certain terms that govern the termination of the contract from either party and it can be with notice or without notice depending on the condition on which the contract is being terminated. If the employee has been involved in some gross misconduct then the employment can be terminated without notice otherwise under normal separation there would a notice period is given before termination or the salary in lieu of notice period will be given. If the employee on contract completes at least one year of the continuous service then they will be eligible for the end of service gratuity, the calculation of gratuity will be as per EOSS.

The second type of contract is for an unlimited term: This is permanent nature of the contract and there is a long term obligation from both the sides, if the contract is being terminated because of any reason then the notice has to be given from either party from one month to maximum period of 3 months. In this case, also the end of service gratuity is payable for at least one year of the continuous service. In this type of contract also it can be terminated without any notice or any salary in lieu of the notice depends on the condition on which contract is being terminated. If the contract is being terminated due to some disciplinary action or due to any gross misconduct then it can be terminated without notice.
