The Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) received a Qatari delegation led by Kholoud Saif Al Kubaisi, Executive Director of the Workers’ Support and Insurance Fund, accompanied by Dr. Abdullah Al-Muhannadi, Legal Advisor, to the Expatriate Workers’ Protection Centre.

The visit aimed to learn about the Kingdom of Bahrain’s efforts in supporting and protecting expatriate workers. Noora Isa Mubarak, LMRA’s Deputy CEO for Enforcement and Protection and a member of the National Committee for Combating Trafficking in Persons (NCCTIPs), highlighted the strong ties between Bahrain and Qatar and the importance of exchanging expertise to support joint efforts.

The meeting discussed key initiatives launched by the Kingdom, including the issuance of International Bank Account Numbers (IBAN) for every worker in the Kingdom, which helps to facilitate and document the electronic payment of wages.
