Ask Louise
Please help me, we are leaving Dubai and have had a maid working for us for the last 8 months. I have advertised for her to find another position but want to know what we need to compensate her before she leaves? She has already had a two week holiday back home during this time.
In this situation, you as the sponsor, will need to pay your housemaid her outstanding salary, and the outstanding annual leave calculated for 8 months, according to the number of vacation days mentioned in the employment contract. This is the contract that would have been typed and signed by both parties during the visa application.
