Labour Dept puts online tabs on law violation

Doha: The Ministry of Labour is set to introduce an online system which will enable it to detect any violation of labour law by employers, including the delay in disbursement of salaries.

The Labour Department is also planning to introduce a campaign — Qatar Gate— to create awareness of workers’ rights.

According to the online system, which is proposed to be launched early next year, employers have to enter the details of workers in a specially designed electronic programme.

Mohammed Saeed Al Nuaimy, Director of Labor Inspection Department at the Ministry of Labour, told an Arabic daily that the new system will help monitor whether firms are strictly abiding by the Labour Department’s guidelines on the operation of labour camps.

nice to know that the labor department is doing something to curb employment violations. how efficient will it be? i guess we'll have to wait and see, but it's a great idea just the same

reminds me of the time when the labour dept. refused to issue me a labour permit citing that the terms on my contract were not enough.my qualification needed a higher pay plus allowances in the contract.when i took the returned application back to my then-GM,he asked for a new contract to be made as per the requirements of the Labour dept. (according to which i had a basic pay of QR.6000+housing allowance+company car+yearly two-way ticket+other allowances) AND another letter to be typed out stating that i am fully aware that the contract has been revised to meet govt. requirements and that i shall make no claims on the terms mentioned within...which i was required to sign before they gave me the new contract....

funny,eh?
