Sick leaves,PublicHolidays as per QLabourLaw

there no limit on sick leave actually. see http://counselqatar.com/sick-leave-annual-limit/

You can ask. If you are applying for a CEO, COO or VP position they might consider doing it. But if all the perks you are getting are mandatory under Qatar law then I doubt they will be doing you any favors.

shall i ask them to remove this line 'In two intervals'

Thanks..

You won't get more. 20 days is by law. The two intervals is interesting.

Mandi

Excuse me, i am an Indian not south african btw..

You South Africans must be like us Sri lankans then. The amount of hols we have there!

In my offer letter they have mentioned that i will be eligible for 20 days paid annual leave after my probation and in 2 intervals. Is this normal? I mean 20 days paid leave is fine? or shall i ask for more?

Please advice..

completely forgot about the sports day holiday.... since this year was the first time it was granted;-p

Compared to South Africa, there are hardly any Public Holidays in this country.... There, I think we have about 17/18 days a year, over and above annual leave and sick leave...

Yes, but it is only at the end-of-service. You have to leave to get it.

Mandi

how about the benefits once you completed your 2 years contract. is there any end of service award given as per QLL..

I hope not, that would be illegal.

Mandi

Thanks for your reply.. I am not sure but I heard that employer keeps last one months salary, if we wish to go to our country on vacation. Is it true?

Thanks,

You can take leave if and only when your employer says you can! Under law, leave is only mandatory every two years.

Mandi

In my offer letter they have mentioned that I shall be granted 20 working days per annum, which may be availed after probation period in 2 intervals.

Is it like, I can only take 10 days leave every single interval? What if i want to extend the leaves? Is there any law or rule that is specifc to my question..

Thanks,

Thanks for your response..

Thanks for your response..

3 days first eid

3 days second eid

1 day National day

there are also 3 holiday days given by your employer at his discrestion.

I think you are intitled to 10days sick leave per year, unless you are hospital bound, then I think its up to 3 months, but that part I am not sure about.
