The Bad Treatment of Employees in Dofreeze LLC, Dubai
Dear Officials,

 I am one of the employees working with Dofreeze LLC, Dubai. I hereby would like to request you to find some solutions to the problems what the employees of Dofreeze are facing. Since I have the trust on you, I thought it would be best to post over here. I am scared to display my name and also file a complaint in the labor court in Dubai as the management makes our life hell than what we are floating in already. I do this on behalf of all the labors who are working with this company.  The labors in this company are really treated worst than animals without providing proper hygienic shelter. We have come from our mother country paying huge amount of money to the agent for the visa which is 8000 dirham’s a year. Once we come and join this company, they make us to sign a form saying they have paid  Dhs 3500 + ticket amount as loan to each production labor. When we inquire about this, they say that was the money spent on visa and we have to pay back to the company. When we talk about the money we paid to the agency from whom they hired us, they come up saying “ No, you have to pay the money”

If we do not agree then they ask us to pay Dhs 3500 + ticket amount and ask us to leave. In this situation we have no other ways  than staying with the company and working for the number of years as per the contract. So in our Dhs 700 salary, Dhs 200 is been deducted every month. So we end up staying back until the loan of almost Dhs 11,000 paid off without even able to take care of our family whatever we earn.

I would request you to have inquiry with random production employees to know the kind of treatment we are going through. We have accommodation which is very filthy and we are treated worst than animals by the management. We are made to work for 12 to 14 hours a day without allowing us to take our weekly off.

If we raise the voice we are treated badly by making us to work continuously for 24 hours some times. There is nobody to listen and do anything for us. We have no money to come to the labor court and file the money. We are very fed up by the treatment.

Is that fair the management treating us this way? We are not allowed to take sick leaves when we are even very sick. Instead we have to come to work. We end up encountering with the accidents, having injuries and even then the management is not bothered about anything. They call themselves as HACCP company but if you come to the production area, you would be surprised with the kind of filthiness and the way things are produced. Its food at the end of the day. Many a times the angry employees drop the nuts and bolts while they produce cakes and still the quality department is not bothered, instead they just sell those products to the market.

Please do something about this..  It’s our humble request. Please save us from the demons. We need justice.
