Tuesday, January 14, 2020

Public Authority for Manpower (PAM) is looking for a new way to prevent domestic workers from invading the labor market of private sector.

According to Al-Jarida daily, 50 percent of violators (domestics), who are working in private sector, have been arrested since last year- with the help of a four-member committee formed by Cabinet. The domestic visa holders found working in private sector were arrested for violating law no.6/2010 and concerned authorities took legal action to deport them in coordination with the General Department of Residency Affairs at Ministry of interior, and the files of their employers have since been blocked daily added.

Law no.68/2015 stipulates that domestic personnel are only allowed to work in private homes.
