Employers to pay for abscounding staff

ABU DHABI — Any employer who fails to inform the authorities about his absconding worker and, instead, allows him/her to work with other sponsors in violation of the law, will have to bear the cost of the air-ticket for the return of the worker to his home country after completion of the formalities, Brigadier Nasser Al Menhali, director of Abu Dhabi Naturalisation and Residency Department (NRD), has said.
