THE PENINSULA

Loopholes in hiring workers to be plugged 

Wednesday, 28 July 2010 04:21

DOHA: Qatar’s anti-human trafficking body is coordinating with the authorities concerned to make sure that loopholes in the recruitment process are removed so that foreign workers are not exploited.
Steps might thus be taken to ensure that companies which succeed in acquiring work visas without actually needing workers may be scanned thoroughly before their visa requests are processed.
The Director of Qatar Foundation for Combating Human Trafficking, Mariam Al Malki, told a local Arabic daily in an interview that her department is keen to ensure that exploitation of foreign workers, whether in companies or homes, is pre-empted by having fool-proof recruitment procedures in place.
She told the daily that five housemaids who had been physically assaulted had been paid compensation.
Another three such cases were in the court. She said that no cases of organised crimes related to human trafficking were reported in the country.
According to Al Malki, an extensive study on domestic workers had already been completed and was being finalised. Its findings would be made public soon, she said.
For this study, various maids were interviewed and sample households were visited.
The study has been carried out in close coordination with various government and non-government bodies.
