If a hospital with permanent staff of 250 is closed down because of decapitated condition of building what will be workers compensation and end of service benefit?
From United Arab Emirates, Dubai
The employees who are not having any supervisory or managerial roles should be given at least two months' notice before the employees are retrenched. All of them shall be paid retrenchment compensation equal to 15 days salary for every completed year of service. In addition to this you have to pay gratuity to those who have been with you for at least five years. The gratuity will again be 15 days salary for every completed year of service. Under the both these cases, any fraction of a year of service of more than six months should be rounded to the next year, though any fraction of service of less than six months shall be ignored. Notice of closure, notice of retrenchment and notice of payment of gratuity should be sent to the respective authorities under the Acts. In addition to the above, obviously, all employees who have leaves to their credit shall be paid leave surrender wages calculated at the present wages being paid to them.

All workers are seeking compensation on closure should contact the labour office prior to closedown of the establishment.

@Prabhat, @Madhu,
I think the post is about closure of a hospital in UAE, not India.

From what I recall,

- Notice period is 30 days (in some cases, 3 months)
- End-of-service gratuity for those who worked more than a year
- Encashment of unused annual leave
- Return ticket to home country for expat employees.

I am assuming there was no ILOE insurance

But I have not updated myself on UAE last for probably last 8 years...
So, I am not sure if these are the correct parameters now

Dear Mr. Madhu and Mr. Saswata Banerjee, Thanks for your feedback. The hospital is in India and not in UAE. It is cleared to me now.

Thanks Mr Saswat to give an insight to the subject:
Mr. Vijay, the duty of the poster is to provide the details to get proper solution to the case.
INDIA::
The notice period for employees in India varies depending on the employee's role, the company's policy, and the state's laws:
Freshers: Typically 30 days
Mid-level and senior roles: Typically 60 to 90 days
State-specific laws: For example, in Delhi, three months' work mandates one month's notice or pay
The Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (IDA) sets the basic framework for notice periods across industries. It states that employees who have worked continuously for at least one year are entitled to a minimum notice period of one month.
Employment contracts or standing orders can specify longer notice periods, as long as they don't violate the IDA. Employers should clearly outline the stipulations concerning the employee notice period in the employment contracts.
During the notice period, employees have rights such as: Continuing employment benefits, Seeking new employment, and Negotiating an early release or payment in lieu of a notice period.

UAE::
The notice period for workers in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) varies depending on the type of contract, the employee's role, and other factors:
Limited contracts: The notice period is usually at least 30 days and no more than 3 months.
Probationers: The notice period is 14 days.
Day laborers: The notice period can be 7, 14, or 30 days, depending on the length of service.
Other employees: The notice period is usually at least 30 days and no more than 90 days.
The notice period for both the employer and employee is standardized across all industries in the UAE. Both parties must sign a written notice to ensure the process is legal.
If either party fails to comply with the notice period, they must pay the other party a notice allowance. The allowance is equal to the employee's full wage or a proportionate amount for the remaining notice period.
