My girlfriend is working in the hospitality business where he was approached/talked by her Manager inappropriately many times, following which she has resigned but the company isn't canceling her VISA due to which she is unable to work anywhere else.
The reason which the company's HR is giving is that she has to pay for the losses that the company faced due to her mistake (which was actually due to the system error - already known to her manager) and that is about 20,000 AED.
After she discussed it with her manager, he said that she must stay if she doesn't want to pay the losses incurred by the company. Clearly, he is harassing her and forcing her to stay. He doesn't want her to leave the job and stay. He is promising her increased salary and bonuses for her to stay.
We need to know the following:
Can they force her to pay for "losses" that the company incurred (note: there is no clause in her contract whatsoever) ?
Could a MOHRE complaint help her?
Is there any other way to deal with this?
Please help on the matter with any advice that you might think would work and share us the best way possible.
TLDR;
My GF's manager at work is forcing her to stay after she resigned by charging her 20k AED before Visa cancellation for the losses her company incurred because of her fault (not really her fault). Guide us to get her out of this situation.
