Apex court affirms end of service indemnity for expatriate government employees.
The Federal Supreme Court confirmed that expatriates working in government or affiliated agencies are entitled to end-of-service benefits even if their contracts do not expressly stipulate so.
Expatriates working in administrative bodies or a related institution are subject to the terms of their employment contracts.
The court added that regardless of what the contract stipulates, it does not negate the right of the employee to renumeration. This is a right set in article 114 of the Human Resources Law No 11 in 2008.
The law was issued in response to the Supreme Court’s decision to dismiss a claim submitted by an employee who had requested an end-of-service indemnity after being employed for four years (read report here).
