Right-handed shape
The Supreme Labor Court obliged a computer systems company to pay an Asian specialist who has been working for it since 2016 his labor dues, which exceeded 26 thousand dinars, after the company failed to pay his bonus and requested that the amount be paid in installments at the rate of 500 dinars per month. Regarding the details of the lawsuit, Attorney General, Attorney Hamid Al-Sammak, explained that his client filed the lawsuit, in which he stated that he joined the defendant computer systems company on June 15, 2015, as a computer specialist for a total wage of 1,765 dinars, but the company refused to pay his dues, and he submitted a settlement document stating that his total dues were 26,647 dinars.
The case was heard before the case management judge, where the judge addressed the Labor Market Regulatory Authority to provide him with a statement of the issuance of a work permit for the plaintiff and a statement of its period, if any. The Labor Market Regulatory Authority’s response was that a work permit was issued to the plaintiff to work for the defendant on June 30, 2016, and it was continuously renewed, and it was canceled on March 21, 2024. The defendant’s agent filed a memorandum in her response in which she maintained that the settlement document attached by the plaintiff was not signed by the plaintiff. The defendant’s authorized signatory, and that the company did not approve of this paper, nor was it issued by it, and that the plaintiff may have obtained this copy unofficially, and without it being delivered to him by an approved means; Which confirms that it was not issued with the intention of approval or commitment, but rather was among the company’s internal papers, and the company reported that the plaintiff’s dues were an amount of 22,647 dinars, and he requested that reconciliation be made with the plaintiff in monthly installments of 500 dinars.
Al-Sammak adhered to what was stated in the document, while the court confirmed the merits of the ruling that the company’s defense does not constitute a denial of the signature or seal contained on the settlement document, which does not make the paper lose its authenticity, in addition to the fact that the defendant had implicitly acknowledged the issuance of the document from her, according to what was stated in her defense, that it was one of its internal papers, and that it had been circulated by mistake, but it did not prove that, and as for what it adhered to, that it It is not a final document, as the defendant was unable to prove the validity of that either, as what is clear from the document is that it is signed and stamped with the seal of the branch affiliated with the defendant company, and then the court takes into account what was stated in that document regarding the plaintiff’s entitlement to the amount contained in it, and awards the plaintiff an amount of 26,647 dinars, and obligates the defendant to pay the expenses and attorney’s fees.
