The Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) conducted two joint inspection campaigns in the Southern Governorate on a number of shops and work sites.

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

LMRA noted that a joint inspection campaign was conducted in the Southern Governorate in coordination with the Nationality, Passports and Residence Affairs (NPRA) and the Governorate’s respective Police Directorate. The other inspection campaign was undertaken in coordination with the General Directorate of Crime Detection and Forensic Evidence of the Ministry of Interior.

LMRA stressed its commitment to report any violation through a continuous and intensive inspection plan, in cooperation with the relevant government entities.

The Labour Market Regulatory Authority renewed its call on all members of the society to support the efforts of government agencies to address illegal labour practices, calling on the public to report violations by filling the electronic form on LMRA’s website www.lmra.gov.bh or calling the authority’s call centre on 17506055.
