Flight to home, 21 days paid leave for hajj for workers in Kuwait
Arab Times said under the new contract, the employer would be obliged to provide the worker with a flight home at the end of their employment, as well as health insurance and end of service indemnity.
The new contract also includes 21 paid days’ leave to perform Hajj for employees who have completed two years’ continuous service, provided the worker is performing Hajj for the first time.
The authority, which was established to help better coordinate labour and expatriate issues, also is reportedly close to finalising a new labour contract, to come into force at the beginning of 2016.
