Everton fight tooth and nail to ensure Premier League survival

United finished the season in third place, while Fulham ended in 10th for their first top-half finish since 2012.

It was a momentous day for manager Erik ten Hag as he secured a third-place finish in his first season at Old Trafford.

The Dutch coach has already led United to triumph in the League Cup and could add to that when his side face Manchester City in the FA Cup final next week.

"There is still one game to go so, and I am sure, that these players will give everything to beat Manchester City next week. So we need it from you as well," Erik ten Hag said at Old Trafford.

"Thank you for everything. I am sure we have a really good chance to take the cup back to Old Trafford."

The visitors could have gone two up in the 26th minute when Casemiro bundled over Tom Cairney in the box, but Aleksandar Mitrovic's spot kick was saved by David de Gea. It was the Serbian striker's fourth miss from the spot this season.

Fulham manager Marco Silva said his side did not deserve to lose the game.

"The game changed completely from that moment (penalty save),” Silva told the BBC.

"We should have reacted in a different way. It was a moment for us to show maturity and handle the game in a different way but we haven't done that.”

Your rights as an employee

The government has taken an increasingly tough line against companies that fail to pay employees on time. Three years ago, the Cabinet passed a decree allowing the government to halt the granting of work permits to companies with wage backlogs.

The new measures passed by the Cabinet in 2016 were an update to the Wage Protection System, which is in place to track whether a company pays its employees on time or not.

If wages are 10 days late, the new measures kick in and the company is alerted it is in breach of labour rules. If wages remain unpaid for a total of 16 days, the authorities can cancel work permits, effectively shutting off operations. Fines of up to Dh5,000 per unpaid employee follow after 60 days.

Despite those measures, late payments remain an issue, particularly in the construction sector. Smaller contractors, such as electrical, plumbing and fit-out businesses, often blame the bigger companies that hire them for wages being late.

The authorities have urged employees to report their companies at the labour ministry or Tawafuq service centres — there are 15 in Abu Dhabi.
