Article (74)

The workers may be required to work additional hours to the working hours specified

in the preceding article provided that the actual working hours per day shall not

exceed ten hours unless the work is necessary for the prevention of gross loss or

dangerous accident or for the repair or alleviation of the consequences of the said

loss or accident.

The employer shall pay to the worker for the additional working hours the rate of not

less than the basic wage plus not less than 25% thereof.

The workers who work between 9pm and 6am shall be paid the basic wage plus not

less than 50% thereof with the exception of the shift workers.

HOURS WORKED

Qatar Labour Law stipulates - 8 hours work on a daily basis and 48 hours on weekly basis.

...in excess of 8 hours daily, 48 hours weekly, etc. is overtime...

PAYMENT

& 1.25 times of hourly rate is the overtime pay for extra hours worked thru the week

# 1.50 times of hourly rate is the overtime pay for extra hours worked on weekends (Fridays) and Holidays (i.e. Eid Holidays & National Day in Qatar).

PLEASE ADVISE if Overtime hours have been worked and no payment received for the same over a period of time ....can it be claimed? My office timings for years have been 10 hours daily....and my employer has never paid on the pretext that a annual bonus is paid yearly (which is again at the discretion of management). My timings still continue to be 10 hours ..even during Ramadan Month we were made to work for 8 hours when Ministry and Labour said working hours have been reduced to 6 hours thru Ramadan Month. What do i do in this ?

Awaiting advise from Labour Legal Experts...Thanks in Advance.

1.25 = for hours beyond 48 hours/ week on regular days

1.50 = for hours beyond 48 hours/ week on holidays

yap. all Overtime works should be paid by your company.

according to qatar labour law..after working overs..the employee should be paid for extra..
