<br />Dear sumairalam and rabia-k
Does this mean an employee cannot switch jobs before 3 years (without leaving country for 6 months) with each of employer, unless he/she has NOC? Does this mean an employee must have to remain with each of later employers also for 3 years, even if the employee has completed 3 years with previous employer(s)?
Could anyone shed some light.
Thanks

an employee can switch jobs before 3 yrs , but the ministry of labour will automatically put a 6 month ban on him uless he gets an NOC from his present employer. the employee may have to pay fee of around dhs 5000 to the ministry. it also depends on which category of professionals you fall in as some are exempted from the ban.i am not 100% sure of the 3 yrs rule.
categories exempt from ban
1 )Engineers.
2)Doctors, chemists, and nurses.
3)Agricultural advisors.
4)Qualified accountants and auditors
5)Administration officers who are graduates.
6)Technicians in electronics, scientific equipment and labs.
7)Licenced Drivers for driving heavy vehicles and buses.
8)Persons working in private oil companies when transferred between those companies.
this is an excellent website for all your queries about the labour laws in uae
