The High Labour Court recently ruled in favor of a worker who was wrongfully dismissed from his job after only three months of employment. The court ordered the cleaning supplies company, the defendant in the case, to pay the plaintiff 7,000 dinars in compensation for the unjust termination. In addition to the compensation, the company was also held responsible for court costs, legal fees, and the issuance of a work experience certificate to the dismissed employee.

According to the plaintiff’s lawyer, Hussain Salem, his client had started working for the company on May 1, 2024, under a two-year contract. However, after just three months, the company decided to terminate his employment without any valid reason. Under Article 111 of the labour law, the company was obligated to compensate the worker for the remaining term of the contract unless a lower compensation was mutually agreed upon, but not less than three months’ wages or the remaining contract term, whichever is less. The court agreed with this interpretation and ruled in favor of the plaintiff.

In addition to the compensation, the court ordered the company to pay 53 dinars in wages for three days (August 1-4, 2024), plus compensation for delayed payment at an annual interest rate of 6%. The interest rate would increase by 1% per month after the sixth month of delay, with a maximum of 12% annually. The court’s decision was made during a public hearing and marked a victory for the dismissed employee in his legal battle against the company that wrongfully terminated his contract.

Overall, the High Labour Court’s ruling in this case sets a precedent for fair treatment of workers who are unfairly dismissed from their jobs. It highlights the importance of upholding labour laws and regulations to protect the rights of employees and ensure that they are compensated fairly in cases of wrongful termination. The court’s decision not only awarded the plaintiff with compensation but also held the company accountable for court costs and legal fees, emphasizing the importance of adhering to legal obligations in relation to employment contracts.

The plaintiff’s lawyer, Hussain Salem, successfully argued the case in favour of his client, citing specific articles of the labour law to support his claims. By presenting a strong legal argument and advocating for the rights of the dismissed worker, Salem was able to secure a favorable outcome in the court ruling. The case serves as a reminder to employers of the legal consequences of unjustly terminating an employee’s contract and the financial liabilities that may result from such actions.

In conclusion, the High Labour Court’s decision to rule in favour of the wrongfully dismissed worker reflects a commitment to upholding justice and fairness in the workplace. By holding the cleaning supplies company accountable for its actions and awarding the plaintiff with compensation and other benefits, the court sends a clear message about the importance of respecting labour laws and ensuring that employees are treated fairly. This case serves as a reminder of the legal protections in place for workers and the consequences that employers may face for violating those rights.
