regarding qatar labor law
By bluesea19781 •
Anyone knows here where i can check the labor law here?
I was hired by a company, I sign the offer letter and they transferred me to their sponsorship without me signing any contract from them, so, my problem is, when i started my first day of work, the employees told me the we will be working for 10 hours maximum hours is 12 each, this is ok with me, but the problem is, Even friday, we have to come to work for another 5 hours, is this Legal for them to do this to their employees? no DAY OFF at all? and nobody told me about this.Please, help, what can I do to this? they will not even pay any single minute Overtime.
You can check on QATAR's LABOUR LAW about your rights regarding this matter..here is the link:

thanks tinkerbel.
thanks tinkerbel, Don't I have any right to this matter even though i did not sign the contract? cause I did not see the office timings in my Job Offer. they are not giving NOC also.In my case, I dont have any contarct signing yet.and also regarding the eid it should be 3 days, and they will give only one day, so I will work on holiday without overtime pay
what are the possible causes if I don't sign the contract? im already under their company's spoansorship.
Actually your luckier than us where working 12 hours a day plus 1 1/2 travel to ras laffan back and forth so its total 15 hours a day. next time make sure all is written in the contract. Good luck
