Dispute of end of service benefit in overseas employment

Dear Sir,

The Employer is in Singapore hired Indian man to manage their business at Saudi Arabia.

Employer promised empolyment contract will be provided on arrival at Saudi Arabia. But the employment contract was not provided at Saudi Arabia as per the promised made at Singapore.

Employee(Indian) keep on doing the job as long as he gets the salary.

The Employee  provided total service 5 Years and 7 months at Saudi Arabia with full honest . 

Employer offer letter was in email where it was indicated end of service benefit is 8.30% .

So The Employer calculated End of service benefit Yearly Salary x 8.30 %  and provided the benefit only for 1 Year.

Employer did not considered the whole service period of 5 years and 7 months while calculating the end of service benefit.

But Employee believe that the calculation should be as follows :

Total period of service provided (5 Years and 7 months) x yearly salary x 8.30% .

Employer doesnot agree with this calculation and refused to accept.

Kindly advise what are remedies available to the employees.

Thank you in advance . Best Regards,

The facts posted suggest that Indian laws do not apply. The author may seek the help of a lawyer in Singapore and/or Saudi Arabia.
