LMRA clamps down on illegal labour market practices

Government

The Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) conducted two joint inspection campaigns which targeted shops and worksites in the Southern and Northern Governorates.

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

The inspection campaign was conducted in the Southern Governorate in coordination with the Southern Municipality and the Governorate’s respective Police Directorate.

The other inspection campaign was undertaken in the Northern Governorate in coordination with the Nationality, Passports and Residence Affairs (NPRA).

The Labour Market Regulatory Authority renewed its call on all members of the society 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.gov.bh or by calling the authority’s call centre on 17506055.
