الإجراءات المتخذة: GSIC-JV issued multiple warnings to QMC to pay its workers. Together with Aspire Zone Foundation (the organization responsible for delivering the stadium) they jointly pressured QMC, but the company continued not to pay. Supreme Committee pressure did lead to the company paying salaries for July and August. The Supreme Committee blacklisted and reported QMC to the labour authority. QMC was “demobilized" from the stadium in February 2020. In January 2020 workers took legal action. When workers refused an offer of settlement only if they returned home, they were allegedly stopped from working. QMC denied workers had been discouraged to report grievances. Workers began to receive some money only after Amnesty approached the Qatari authorities, FIFA and the Supreme Committee in June 2020. FIFA stated it was previously unaware of the findings, raising concern that FIFA's human rights due diligence systems are inadequate. FIFA pledged to review its processes with World Cup partners and to strengthen its own mechanisms. The Supreme Committee stated that they will continue to pursue the case with the labour authorities.
