hopefully they will follow the same procedures and processes out here in the gulf countries so there will be less abuse of the maids and the other workers too

Reminds me of a similar story:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/8566389/Servant-paid-2.50-an-hour-wins-tribunal-against-Arab-Princess.html

An Arab Princess has been ordered to pay £175,000 in compensation to a servant paid less than £2.50 an hour who was forced to dig into his own pocket to cover the food bills from Harrods because Tesco was not considered good enough.
