BaghdadiLaw’s experience in dismissal from public employment in the UAE
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to government employment dismissal disputes, with a firm understanding of the decision, authority, investigation, opportunity to respond and affected employment rights. Dismissal from UAE public employment depends on the employer and the applicable federal or local human-resources regime. Reviewing the appointment, disciplinary record and dismissal reasons helps separate procedural concerns from disputed performance or misconduct findings.
Federal Government Human Resources Law 49/2022 is relevant to employees within its scope, including its exceptions. A UAE government employer is not automatically governed by private-sector Labour Law 33/2021; emirate-level and special employment rules must be identified before assessing dismissal. Confirm the appointment basis and employment regime before applying a private-sector process. Keep the dismissal decision, service history and objection records together.
We agree the work your matter needs: Use the applicable public-employment grievance for an adverse decision, identifying procedural and substantive grounds. Separate accrued pay and benefits from reinstatement or annulment requests; private-sector dismissal formulas should not determine the remedy before employment status is established. The deliverable is agreed for your file: A dismissal chronology and grounds assessment identifying the governing employment regime, contested findings and evidence relevant to grievance or compensation.

Before requesting advice on dismissal from public employment in the UAE
Should a public employee use the ordinary private-sector dismissal route?+
Not by assumption. Identify the employer, appointment regime, decision and notification record. Review the applicable public-service grievance and challenge framework, and separate reinstatement, pay and compensation requests.
Does government ownership of a company decide the employment regime?+
Not alone. Examine the employer's legal status and the employee's actual appointment framework.
Can the dispute include pay and disciplinary grounds separately?+
Yes. Separate the dismissal challenge from accrued financial entitlements and their evidence.
