Frequently Asked Questions

Am I entitled to claim compensation for unfair dismissal even if I signed a settlement form?

In some cases, a settlement form can be contested if it is proven to have been signed under pressure or without receiving your full entitlements. Its validity is assessed based on the circumstances of the signing and how closely it matches the actual dues owed under the employment contract and the law.

It is often advisable to attempt an amicable settlement through the competent authorities before resorting to court, especially in disputes related to wages or end-of-service. If a settlement cannot be reached, the matter can proceed to judicial proceedings through the appropriate legal path.
Labor claims are subject to specific legal time limits that vary depending on the type of claim (wages, compensation, work injury, etc.). It is therefore important not to delay seeking consultation, to avoid losing your right through the statute of limitations.
Yes, a claim may include: annual leave allowance, end-of-service gratuity, notice pay, compensation for unlawful dismissal, or any dues stipulated in the contract or the company’s regulations.
Deductions from salary are only permitted within the limits allowed by the contract or the law, and at a reasonable and justified rate. Any unjustified or undocumented deduction can be challenged, with a legal claim to have it refunded.
Yes, if you are required to work beyond your agreed working hours, you may be entitled to additional pay as regulated by the employment contract and the applicable regulations. This is calculated based on the number of hours and the nature of the work.
You are entitled to request a certificate confirming your length of service and the nature of your job. If it is refused without lawful reason, the employer can be formally contacted, or the appropriate action can be taken to compel them to issue it.
In certain serious cases (such as non-payment of wages or breach of fundamental contract terms), an employee may have the right to terminate the contract without notice, while retaining the right to claim compensation. This is assessed according to the specific details of each case.

Yes, having insurance does not prevent you from claiming the rights established by law. Whether compensation comes from the insurance company alone or includes additional claims is determined according to the circumstances of the injury and the employer’s liability.
