Job Secondment

Hi QLers!!!
would like to know what are the rules for an employee working on secondment.

for example a friend of mine is working on a secondment with a company (exactly 2months now) and dont want to continue with the company, cause she receive a good offer in other company (way to far from the offer that my employer give me). Does her company can stop her from changing job.

also does her sponsor can give her again job secondment for other company.

Thanks in Advance...

Regardless of the secondment in order to change from company your friend must have a NOC from the current employer.

If the actual employer is not willing to provide a NOC then if your friend quits most likely she will have to go out of Qatar for 2 yrs and then come back. By the way the 2 yr period starts upon visa cancellation and not upon leaving your job.

Now if the actual employer can second your friend to the other company then go ahead and tell her to ask for the secondment.

Anyways, just keep in mind that a NOC is needed at all times. If she can not get a NOC then it is bye bye Qatar for her for 2 yrs.

Regards!!
