we all came here for the higher $$ then we did back home.
so we have to leave something behind, not to take home ALL.
all contract awarded to foreign companies, i beleive have to fullfill the social responsibility of sib contract a certain % of the works to the LOCAL !!!!
if you cannot take it, leave it !!
Now the companies will deduct these amounts from the employees. what it will effect to company! nothing. It will only effect the employee or labors. I dont know, who will live in Qatar in coming future with this much increasing cost of living and unnecessary expenses without the proper increasing in Salary.
Respect 4 Everyone
therefore they increase all the charges due to high inflation in qatar. what about us expatriate
the cost of living in Qatar is high and on top of that they have this new money making concept coming up....
....the authorities sure know how to squeeze the workers dry. Companies may passed on increased cost by deducting from employees' salaries!
Not only that, a friend of mind have paid for 3mos business visa, but now they told her that, that no longer work,business visa for 3mos is effective only for 1mo. So she's so worried for her nephew who have not find a job and company to give sponsorship.
More added headache for those leaving or coming, but what to do???????
Just biiiiiiite it!
Before every thing are free
NOW...
they start other business,what can we do...
Just follow the ruler they will not change...
oh ..poor ...
then NOT than
If they charge more and work faster than it would be nice, but I don't think so...
These new immigration charges (rules) suck.
Thanx for the info.
