Kuwait second:

Kuwait ranks second among Arab countries in terms of caring for domestic workers, reports Al-Anba daily.

The rank of the country in the classifica­tion has increased as a result of continuous coordinati­on and cooperatio­n among the department­s of domestic workers and follow-up of violators, Residence Affairs Investigat­ions Department, Criminal Investigat­ions and AntiHuman Traffickin­g and the Center for Sheltering Workers affiliated to Public Authority for Manpower.

This reflects a positive and significan­t developmen­t in domestic workers cases, especially since they are linked to the tasks of those department­s and authoritie­s in terms of dealing with cases such as absconding, abuse, crime and immoral acts.

It is worth mentioning that the abovementi­oned department­s and institutio­ns usually coordinate through forums, conference­s and workshops mainly to study and explore ways to deal with relevant issues and exchange informatio­n among themselves.
