Why are nearly 200 UAE-based Petrofac employees asking, “Where is our gratuity?” and claiming unpaid dues could exceed Dh27 million?

After abrupt layoffs announced during a town hall on November 18, staff say they were told to clear their desks immediately and have since received no clarity on their end-of-service benefits, leave balances, or final settlements — with some owed over Dh700,000 — leaving them feeling abandoned despite years of service and growing financial pressures; although visas were extended for two months, workers insist that without their guaranteed gratuity, they cannot support their families or repay loans, especially as Petrofac’s wider financial troubles deepen following a cancelled €2 billion project and the company’s move to appoint administrators. Do you believe companies facing financial distress should be legally required to provide immediate transparency and timelines for employee settlements — or are workers too vulnerable in such situations?
