Former Petrofac employees laid off on November 19 say they have now received their salaries for the 19 days worked this month, offering brief relief in a period marked by confusion, financial strain and concerns over end-of-service benefits.
Gulf News contacted several employees to verify the update.
“Yes, we received the salary for 19 days on Monday,” one former manager said, adding that the partial payment was expected but still difficult to navigate.
