Improving lives of expat workers
Posted by Srivatsa at 23:44 UAE time
To start with we can start punishing those companies that have forced their workers to work on the the Eid holidays declared by govt, without any overtime. Govt should be proactive and ensure all the passports are released by companies, which they are holding against the law.
Some of these basics rights if done, it would be in the right direction.

WORKING CONDITIONS OF EXPATRIATES
Posted by KOZHIPURATH SADANAND at 04:47 UAE time
It is a right step initiated by Mr. Ghargash towards improving the working conditions of all expatriates in UAE. It is being seen in India that job seekers, particularly unskilled lots are lured by the recruitment agents here with a promise of good pay and best working conditions with a particular employer and charge hefty "service charge" from them.
The hell of an affair starts when these expatriates land in their job destinations and the promised pay as well as accommodation and other facilities are being taken a back seat and these slots have to compromise with the conditions meted out to them because of bleak economic conditions prevailing back at their homes.
Thus concluding my scripts I wish and hope that a strict law in this regard initiated by Mr. Ghargish will see that all defaulters (employers) adhere to the guideline prescribed in this regard.

Expats Rights
Posted by Homa Farley at 11:06 UAE time
I would like to congratulate Mr. Anwar Mohammed Gargash, minister of state for foreign affairs for the promise he has made to protect the rights of expat workers particularly those in the lower income bracket, who are a major force in building this country.
I wish Mr. Anwar Mohammed Gargash all the best in achieving his noble goal.
