Court rules company to pay employee QR86,785 compensation

The Administrative Court of Appeal has ruled that a company pay one of its former employees a sum of QR86,785, in addition to a return air ticket to his home country.

Local Arabic daily Arrayah reported that the court also ordered the company to return to the employee his original degree certificates and issue him an experience certificate, besides the company shall pay all the incurred legal expenses of the case.

The employee filed the case when his company suspended him and then fired him without due warning after 12 years of service. His lawyer requested that the court order the company to pay him his dues, which include two months' salary being the legal period for termination notice, salary for 17 days during which he was suspended from work, the value of a return travel air ticket, compensation for firing him without due reason, and the monetary value of his credit of leave days.

The court of first instance ruled that the company pay the employee a sum of QR42,218. But, the company appealed the ruling at a higher court. Upon further calculations by an expert delegated by the court, the court ruled that the company should pay a sum of QR86,785 and the other benefits.
