‘Employer must pay KD 250 for absconding employees case’
‘Labor’ recently observes large number of absconding reports
They explained that the ministry is planning to implement such a procedure after recently observing that a large number of absconding reports, which the employees had submitted against their employees, were not withdrawn after the two parties settled their issues in a friendly manner.
They stressed that the financial guarantee paid by the employers will be used for the good of the employees in dealing with any new developments in the cases such as for paying their ticket fares or as indemnity for obligating the employer to settle the dues of his employees.
They added the decision will insist that the officials of the concerned departments should not any accept any absconding reports from the employers if the latter fail to pay the financial guarantee.
