Facing myriad physical and psychological stress, at least 579 Nepali migrant workers across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries have committed suicide in the past 11 years, according to data reviewed by Migrant-Rights.org.

Interviews with the families of eight workers who died by suicide confirm that workers were in debt during their foreign employment. They had also reported receiving salaries lower than they agreed to prior to departure or at odds with their employment contracts. They worked extra hours to earn more money, despite the harsh working conditions.
