Labour Market Regulatory Authority steps up inspection campaigns

The Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) conducted two inspection campaigns in the Capital Governorate.

The clampdown was coordinated with the Nationality, Passports and Residence Affairs (NPRA) and the Capital Police Directorate and the General Directorate of Crime Detection and Forensic Evidence.

LMRA inspectors have also conducted a third campaign in the Northern Governorate.

The campaigns resulted in reporting several violations related to the Labour Market and Residency laws. The reported cases were referred for legal action.

LMRA stressed its commitment to report violations through an intensive inspection plan, in coordination with the relevant government entities.

It renewed its call to support the efforts of government agencies in addressing illegal labour practices, by reporting violations via the electronic form on the authority’s website www.lmra.bh or by calling the authority’s call centre on 17506055.
