I was wondering what I should do as my employer is not giving my pending salary for 2 months and my vacation leave settlement. I am going for my vacation tomorrow, still he's telling that he doesn't have money but we always have ongoing business and projects. Our salary is always late as well. We received our March salary only on May 31st, and still, 2 months' salaries are pending. What should I do?

Is the company having timely and adequate cash flow?
Sometimes the company may have adequate projects, but billing and receiving payments may be delayed. Are all employees facing the same problem? Are creditors being paid on time? One must determine whether the delay is intentional or due to genuine problems. Affected employees need to first address the delays with management, and if there are no results, they should then approach labor officials in the area with their concerns.

As per the UAE Labour Law, the salary cannot be delayed more than a week in extreme business conditions. But if it is a regular monthly issue, then the company is in violation of the UAE Labour Law.
The UAE WPS Act clearly states that the salary has to be credited to the employee on the salary due date.
Some company managers or PRO try to intimidate innocent employees against severe action in order to scare them. However, an employee needs to remember that the Dubai Police and Ministry of Labour work on such cases in the employee's benefit if the employee's claims are correct, accurate, and supported by bank records, evidence, and paperwork.
