Doha
The Court of Cassation has directed a farm owner to pay a compensation of QR25,500 to a worker who had been arbitrarily dismissed from work, local Arabic daily Arrayah has reported.
The worker had filed a lawsuit requesting that he be paid a sum of QR41,500 as end-of-service dues and compensation for arbitrary termination, the daily adds.
In his lawsuit, the worker said he was working in a farm owned by the defendant, who failed to pay his dues. A Primary Court had directed the employer to pay a sum of QR25,500 in addition to bearing the cost of an air ticket.
The plaintiff appealed against this judgment, but the Court of Cassation rejected the plea and confirmed the verdict of the Primary Court.
