Era of sponsorship ends in Qatar

FIFA praises Qatar Labour law reforms

Qatar scraps sponsorship system, Gulf second, after Bahrain.

Qatar on Thursday 2nd December 2010 became the second Gulf state to abolish controversial labour laws that restrict the free movement of workers amid praise from rights groups and criticism from local industry.
It is hoped the new Labour Law is able to establish a better job market, promotes welfare and economic environment and harmoniously promote progress, prosperity and peace for all stakeholders.
