I'm working in a consulting company in UK but have a project here in Doha. They provide a working visa for myself thru a sponsor here in Qatar. Now i got my RP. I need to know if my contract between the consulting company and myself is valid here in Qatar labor laws. Herewith some questions i need to clarify:
1) What's the agreement between the consulting company and the sponsor in Qatar in hiring their workers in issuing a visa?
2) Since i'm working as a contractor/consultant in Qatar, am i entitled in labor laws here?
3)My contract between the consulting company is renewable every 6months, What's the chances of getting an NOC from my sponsor? Let say, i can find a good company to work with.
Please enlighten...
Thanks and more power,
beechcraft

Qatar labor law will always supercede what's written in your contract. An NOC is always anyone's guess. More often than not it isn't given.
