Cleaning workers in the gulf warzone are denied basic rights

10 Aug 2011 1:00 PM | IJCSA - (Administrator)
Their wages vary between QR600, the minimum wage legally specified for Nepalis who constitute a substantial number of the cleaning workers, and QR 1,000, including overtime.
Most workers say that they are paid overtime; however it is unclear how this overtime is calculated  as the section in Qatar’s Labour Law that specifies maximum working hours for employees  is not applicable to cleaning workers specifically.
As they are excluded from that particular regulation, many companies  have taken advantage of this loophole, making janitors work almost twice the legal working hours during Ramadan, and two to four hours more during the rest of the year.
