The Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) has announced the results of a major inspection campaign carried out across Bahrain between May 11 and May 17, 2025, which led to the deportation of 167 violators and the detention of 14 irregular workers.
In total, the LMRA conducted 1,337 inspection campaigns and visits, including 1,324 individual visits to commercial establishments and 13 joint inspection operations in coordination with multiple government agencies.
The joint campaigns were carried out in all four governorates, including seven in the Capital Governorate, two each in Muharraq, Northern, and Southern Governorates. The inspections uncovered several violations of Bahrain’s Labour Market Regulation Law and Residency Laws, and appropriate legal action has been taken.
Participating entities included the Ministry of Interior, represented by the Nationality, Passports and Residence Affairs (NPRA), along with the Police Directorates, the General Directorate of Media and Security Culture, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, and the Ministry of Municipalities Affairs and Agriculture.
The LMRA emphasized its continued collaboration with government partners to protect the integrity of the labour market and address illegal employment practices that threaten the Kingdom’s economic and social security.
Citizens and residents are encouraged to report any suspected labour violations via the LMRA website at www.lmra.gov.bh, by calling 17506055, or through the Tawasul Suggestions and Complaints System.
