I ended my employment in Qatar some time ago but I believe my employer hasn't been fair with me and didn't pay me my bonus and few holiday days. What is the best way to check on whether I should get that or not? Can any one recommend a good employment lawyer in Qatar?
You may like to check their bonus payment provisions. In one company I worked for, the bonus was payable to employees on roll as on 1st Jan of that calendar year and also on the date the bonus is declared, which is a date in the next year for the bonus for the previous year. So if I have joined on 02/01/2012 I am not entitled for bonus paid in 2013 for year 2012. And say if I joined on 01/01/12 or before but left the company on say 30/03/2013 and the bonus for 2012 was declared on 01/04/2013, I am still not entitled for it. Mostly these are covered under HR policies or at times in the bonus order.
I didn't understand the Holiday days part, do you mean the balance of leave entitlement.

please not that bonus is not an obligatory payment by the employer and there are no rules pertaining to this in Qatar .
