I have read my contract and nowhere on it is mentioned end of service benefit . I have read the Qatar labour laws which state I am entitled to it .The company told me the end of service benefit was built in to my salary though this was not the case and I have signed nothing as a waiver to this entitlement .They delayed making a decision on this until the day I was going on home leave when it was too late for me to seek legal advice in Doha . Two days after I left the company issued letters to the other current employees asking them to waiver any right to this as it is also not mentioned in thier contracts . The legal department in the oil company I am working for agreed that I have a case against them though they will not get involved as the contracting company is supplying people to them at the moment .
If anybody living in Doha can put me in contact with a lawyer who deals with issues such as this I would appreciate it .
