Hi all. I am currently working in an "International" company in Doha. The only thing is, all it's employees (Engineers, laborers etc.) are not getting it's salaries yet for more than two months! Do you have any idea on what action can we do in order for us to get our selaries? We are tired of doing strike because company is not listening and this is the third time our selaries are delayed. Is Doha affected by the Worldwide recesion? Please give me your opinion or suggestion. Many thanks!

So sorry to hear of your plight. Unfortunately the normal employment laws and rules do not appear to apply to Qatar, even if you sign a contract!!
