  • 25/09/2022

Kuwait City: The Public Authority for Manpower (PAM) in Kuwait confirmed on Thursday that workers' rights are protected by law, emphasising the importance of exporting countries following their rules. This was stated by Dr. Mubarak Al-Azmi, Acting Director General of the Public Authority of Manpower, on the sidelines of the 48th Arab Labor Conference in Cairo. 


According to Al-Azmi, the authority has asked its counterpart in Egypt to verify the integrity of the contracts that precede the recruitment process to Kuwait in coordination with the relevant authorities in the country, as well as to comply with Kuwaiti legislation and regulations "to reduce any violations that result in workers being deported." The authority urged the Egyptian Ministry of Labor to focus on the role of recruitment agencies and the government's role in monitoring procedures "to ensure the protection of workers' rights before they travel and to ensure the health and safety of the recruits."
