Nakheel Landscapes returned all passports to its workers, moved its workers to new accommodation and established an Employee Consulting Procedure and put in place elected worker representatives who can represent the workers and raise problems. Aspire Zone told AI the the SC Worker Welfare Standards do not apply to Nakheel's contract on the Aspire Zone green areas because it is not an official World Cup project.

Ergriffene Maßnahmen: Amnesty International asked Eversendai to set out what due diligence the company had undertaken on Seven Hills prior to contracting with it. Amnesty International received two letters from Eversendai. However, the company did not provide any information to show it had carried out due diligence checks before engaging Seven Hills. Eversendai terminated its contract with Seven Hills over accommodation non-compliance. They stated to AI that "no remedial action is deemed necessary" as the workers were not directly engaged by them.
