Hi

Please help me, i am trying to find answer for above question.
1. I came to Qatar 5 year before as Engineer.
2. I completed 3 years in my first company.
3. my 1st employer issued me noc/release after completion of project.
4. I joined another company & i completed 2 years in my second company

my question to all, since I am locally hired, is it my right to ask NOC to my second employer ?

My 2nd employer will issue me noc/release or refuse ?
what labour law says for locally hired ?

The locally hired candidates should be given the privilege of a release or an NOC if the situation warrants, however it is still dependent on your employer if he wishes or not.

Therefore, during the interview / negotiation process, this should be cleared with the would be employer for the employee's benefits in the future.

as what ive known you have the right to have NOC from your second employer because they are not the one you issue the VISA. they just trasfer your sponsorship to them. Youve just need to finsh your one year with your second employer. ask the immigration about this and please let me know whats there answer because me i transfer also but my second company will give me NOC if ever i want to transfer and this is clear between me and my employer

Labor law does not differentiate between the point of hire. Whether local or international makes no difference.

It is upto your sponsor to give a NOC or refuse it. They are not legally obliged to give you a noc.
