Just a quick comment to all the readers who doubt what is said here in relation to EK is true. Although owned by the Government of Dubai via ICD, it is classified as a semi -government company. That means they are not subject to UAE Labour Law!! A Government owned entity that isn't subject to its own law. Hence there is no contract that can be enforced. Hence all the downwards changes. Some are sneaky like the ALT. For others they send a contract adjustment letter. (Sic) a bunch of crooks. So glad I left. Not a moments regret. Think carefully!
