Workers’ wages in Qatar should be paid directly into bank accounts, so that the government can track and punish employers who don’t pay on time or at all, the Cabinet has announced.

The board’s nod brings Qatar one step closer to amending a key provision of its Labor Law, which currently does not require employers to make electronic wage payments for all workers.

However, the Emir’s signature would still be required for the amendment to pass.

In a statement issued by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of State for Cabinet Affairs Ahmed bin Abdullah bin Zaid Al-Mahmoud, the Cabinet said the new system should be created and handled by the nation’s banking regulator, Qatar Central Bank (QCB).

i hope banks or its sales agents can properly train laborers on how atm's are used and how to monitor their accounts. i've been asked several times at some atm's near bank street because some people have no clue about using the machines. i do help if we can communicate but sometimes the language barrier is too much. i'm afraid their inexperience would lead to having their cards captured and they will incur card replacement charges which they can't really afford.
