Qatar: Migrant workers on World Cup projects to be reimbursed $30m for recruitment fees
"Three more stadiums to be launched this year," 10 Feb 2020
About $30mn will be reimbursed by the contractors this year to those workers who had paid recruitment fee in their home countries...
โBy 2020, about 83% of our workforce will have their recruitment fee reimbursed... 50% are our workers while the other 50% are those enlisted to our projects by our contractors,โ SC general secretary Hassan al-Thawadi explained...
โIt is unfortunate that many workers had to pay exorbitant amounts as recruitment fee in their home countries to get opportunities to work in our projects... we initiated a programme to resolve this issue and the contractors willingly took part in the programme,โ he recalled.
