The Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) has announced the successful implementation of 1,523 inspection campaigns and visits from October 20 to 26, 2024. These efforts led to the detention of 62 workers found in violation of labor regulations, and 208 violators were subsequently deported.

The inspections were part of the LMRA's ongoing commitment to uphold the laws governing the labor market and residency in the Kingdom of Bahrain. During this period, several violations concerning various regulatory provisions were identified, prompting the authority to take legal action against the offenders.

The LMRA reported that 1,491 of these inspections focused on various businesses across all governorates, along with 32 joint inspection campaigns. The breakdown of these joint campaigns included:

17 campaigns in the Capital Governorate
3 campaigns in the Muharraq Governorate

6 campaigns in the Southern Governorate

The authority emphasized the importance of these inspections in ensuring compliance with labor laws and maintaining a fair work environment for all residents in Bahrain. The LMRA continues to work diligently to monitor labor practices and protect the rights of workers in the Kingdom.
