Are You Really Self Employed?

With the right to employment comes another essential related right which is the right to choice of one's employment. The right to choice of one's employment gives the freedom to people to undertake work of their own choice and not toil in the field in which they do not wish to put their labor.

Laboring against the will of one's self can be considered to be forced labor which is illegal in UAE and most of the other countries in the world.

Employment contract is an agreement between the employer and the employee where the employee agrees to work for the employer for a fixed period of time and for a specific job - role. Employment contracts sometimes do not fix the duration of employment in which case the contract is known as an undetermined contract whereas determined employment contracts are contracts that bind the employee to the employer for a fixed period of time.

Employment contracts are not considered as forms of forced labor as both the employee and employer willingly enter into it but in the long run it may be considered as forced labor as the main aim to fix a duration is to ensure that the employee does not leave the employment before that duration even if he wishes to and therefore once the employee signs an employment contract he has to work for the employer for the number of years fixed by the employment contract and the employee loses his right to leave quit the employment before that period. Though this is not considered forced labor it is in reality a different form of forced labor behind the veil of an enforceable contract.
