“In light of the videos that were circulated regarding the evacuation of offices from the expat workforces who have violated in a number of private sector establishments when the judicial control officers’ inspection visits. The Ministry of Labour would like to extend its sincere thanks to everyone who interacted in these videos, which shows the full and conscious care of the employees for the damage these practices caused in the labour market.
