In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers. Workers at petrochemicals giant Saudi Aramco repeatedly reported to Equidem that their employer had failed to renew their iqama (residency permit), without which they could not access health care services. Workers also reported the company deducted salary for taking sick leave and consequently "hundreds" of workers cannot go to the hospital.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers. A Nepalese worker and an Indian worker raised concerns about how they were being protected at work. The Nepalese worker said that they felt the chances of being infected at work were higher than at the camp and that the company had not provided any safety kits like masks, hand wash, or sanitzers. The Indian workers said there had been inadequate preventative measures and no saftey kits like gloves or facemasks.

Workers with Al Jeraisy Group told Equidem the company fired up to 500 workers and did not grant them owed salary or end-of-service benefits. The workers report they were forced to sign a letter that was only in Arabic - they believe it was a resignation letter. Other workers who remained in the camp at the time were stranded without pay and did not have money to buy food.
One construction worker employed by the company raised concerns regarding the impossibility of social distancing at their labour camp and infection risks of crowded accommodation.
Workers who were returning to their home countries were not provided with PPE, despite being unable to return without them. One worker told Equidem that he had to borrow money from friends to do so."

"The company does not pay for the treatment. That is why I and other workers pay for medical treatment with our own money. None of us have yet contracted COVID-19, but I am very fearful of it (because) we do not have medical cards (to access the public health system). I don’t know how to get free testing or register for a medical card."

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers. Workers made a number of allegations against Al Darwish. One worker with 18 years service said at the start of lockdown the company sent him home without pay for the last 2 months and final salary benefits. They told him they would pay once he was back in India but have not and are not replying to attempts by the worker to get payment. They report up to 2000 workers had been terminated by the company and most did not get their entitlements. Another worker said: "The situation is very bad here. There is no space to social distance. My friends said that there are 8-10 people in each room right now. There is a line to go to toilets to baths and wash clothes. The food is available from the canteen, which is always crowded, and there is no proper sanitation there". Another worker for Al Darwish Engineering said: "There are about four thousand people living in this camp. When the lockdown first stared, the situation here was very bad. No one followed any social distancing. There were 8-10 people in a room. There are toilets, bathrooms and laundry in one place. It was always crowded. The dining area too was very crowded. The number of people has significantly decreased now since the company fired more than thousand workers." Workers also reported being unable to access medical services one said that workers try never to go to hospital and that if they see a doctor the company deducts a day's pay. If they do see a doctor they are charged for tests even though they have a medical card. The company also failed to provide adequate information to workers. Another said: “The company did not provide us any information on how to avoid infection, what safety measures to take or what to do in case anyone is infected. I feel like the reason I got infected is due to the lack of information."

Now I am left with no job and no money. My family is worried about my health. I have to go back even though the flight cost has doubled. I bought the air ticket borrowing some money from my friends.

They fired many other workers but did not fire a single Saudi. We did not get any help or money after signing the paper. I neither have money nor accommodation. I am buying food borrowing some money from my friends and relatives. I am living in an old building, which is not build for accommodation purposes.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers. A Pakistani worker with National Paints Factory in Sharjah, UAE told Equidem that the job uncertainty wrought by COVID-19 and rumours of large planned layoffs exacerbated his anxiety that he had been unable to send any money to his family as the company had not paid him (by June) since April.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers.
Equidem described that many workers cited employers forcing workers to sign agreements without their consent to terminate contracts and send them home while keeping other workers employed but without pay. A cook at an InterContinental Hotel in Dubai told Equidem that workers were notified they would be on unpaid leave. He also said the workers were made to work overtime without rest and full pay.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers. Workers at Transguard reported allegations that follow earlier reporting by Migrant-Rights including withheld salaries, verbal mistreatment, end-of-service deductions, deductions for food and insufficient food. The company reportedly did not conduct contractual changes in the proper manner.
One worker also described discrimination Transguard practiced against workers in terms of pay differentials between nationals and non-nationals.
In April 2021, it was announced that Transguard had signed a framework agreement with the German Pavilion to provide security, cleaning and laundry services during the Dubai Expo. The Resource Centre invited Koelnmesse, the company contracted to organise and run the German Pavilion to set out the human rights due diligence process it undertook prior to contracting Transguard, and to disclose any findings or steps it took to ensure the issues were addressed satisfactorily. The response provided by Koelnmesse’s did not address the request to disclose their due diligence process. The Resource Centre also invited the German Emirati Joint Council for Industry & Commerce to do the same; they provided a response.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers. A Nepalese national working as a labourer at Imar Trading and Contracting, said that his employer had failed to take even the most basic preventative measures to reduce COVID-19 infection at their workplaces. He told Equidem, “The company has not given us workers the basic essentials such as masks and hand sanitizers. "It is an essential tool to prevent spreading the infection" he said. Staff of Imar Trading and Contracting also told Equidem that their employer had not provided any information about the virus. A laundry cleaner said: “No one has explained what COVID-19 is and how to reduce the risk of infection. I have got information on my own by searching the internet or through social media,”

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers.
Equidem spoke with migrant workers employed by six subcontractors of construction giant Saudi Aramco - their employers had failed to pay wages owed before the pandemic, during or both. In one case, an employee of Azmeel Contracting Co. reported that he had not been paid since February 2020 and lockdown and had been forced to take a loan. Even after work started back up workers were waiting on wages. More than 1,000 workers had reportedly been fired and had not received any payment.
Another worker told Equidem that they had not been paid a food allowance while stranded a their labour camp and they could not afford sufficient food.
Another told Equidem that his iqama (residency permit) has been expired for over a year; 3,000 other people from the company in the same labour camp also have an expired permit meaning they live like "bonded laborers". They consequently cannot access the public health system. One worker reported that he had to borrow money from relatives to afford medicine.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers. A Bangladeshi national at World Cup contractor Rise and Shine Group in Qatar reported that the company physically abuses workers. He reported an incident where a worker was taken to the hospital only after workers demanded it but the worker was docked pay for those days. The worker that was beaten also provided testimony and commented in addition that the company does not pay overtime payments. Another worker of the Rise and Shine Group said that his friend was taken to the hospital 4 days after testing positive for COVID and he heard that he died but the boss said that it was his diabetes and breathing problems that caused his death. He said that 9 people in his camp showed symptoms but they did not get treatment and were not isolated. There were also allegations of a lack of PPE. A Bangladeshi national, Rifat, said: "after the works resumed, they (manager/ employer) provided us with masks for the first two/ three days. Later they asked us to manage masks on our own. We replied how could we manage that. We are not even allowed to go to the market. They said, ‘if needed, use your cloths." In another part of the report the same worker (seemingly) said: “112 workers are living in 3 rooms. How do I move around and maintain social distancing?"

Workers from Alodood Contracting Co. reported that the company had stopped paying workers since the lockdown was announced - at the time of the interview workers had been without pay for three months, but even after work resumed workers did not receive salary. At least one worker interviewed did not have money to buy food and was forced to borrow money from friends to buy basics. The company allegedly sent workers home without salary or other benefits.
The worker also reported concerns to Equidem regarding the impossibility of practising social distancing in a crowded labour accommodation. While the company did provide information for workers on COVID-19 and infection risk, they failed to provide masks, gloves and sanitizers, despite promising too. The company said that workers without equipment would not be allowed to work and workers had to buy their own.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers.
Five workers at Industrial Technology Services Middle East spoke to Equidem, alleging they were pressured either to resign with an end of service settlement or be terminated without final salaries or end of service benefits. Workers requested the company only reduce pay but were effectively forced to resign. They did not receive outstanding salaries and allowances and were stranded in the country with no help from their company. Many have now returned to their home countries and still have not received what is owed to them. One worker said that thousands of workers were fired without receiving any kind of payment.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers.
A worker at Aramco subcontractor International Recruitment Co. told Equidem that they were reliant on their personal network for housing and food after the company stopped paying him and did not provide him with food when they terminated him. He took a loan from relatives and is staying with a relative. Other workers reportedly did not receive their end of service benefit.
Another worker also reported that workers did not have sufficient protective equipment and were working in dangerous conditions in a gas plant; workers were unable to access healthcare facilities because their iqamas (residency permits) had expired and the company did not renew it. He also recounted being physically abused at the company and that the company had confiscated his passport.

Equidem spoke with migrant workers employed by six subcontractors of construction giant Saudi Aramco - their employers had failed to pay wages owed before the pandemic, during or both. In one case, employees of A.S. Alsayed Company told Equidem employees worked throughout the pandemic and still had not been paid. One worker had not been paid since February 2020. Some were fired without payment. Many of the "hundreds" of workers affected did not have enough money for food.

Equidem spoke with migrant workers employed by six subcontractors of construction giant Saudi Aramco - their employers had failed to pay wages owed before the pandemic, during or both. In one case, employees of Al Rashid Co. reported that the company fired workers for asking for their salary and did not pay either owed salary or benefit. Workers felt afraid to say anything to their employers and reported barely having enough money for food.
The worker did report that the company gave workers information on infection control but did not provide workers with safety kits including masks which they had to buy with their own money.

One worker at Civil Works Co. told Equidem that he contined to work throughout the lockdown period but his company only paid him half his salary. Workers' visas were cancelled and Indian workers were repatriated despite their contract period being ongoing. Workers were made to sign a document that was not explained to them and their contracts were subsequently terminated without workers being paid salaries or end-of-service benefits. Workers reported being reliant on borrowing money from friends and family to buy food. Another worker told Equidem that because his employer had failed to renew iqama (work permits), workers were unable to access the public health system and workers had to buy their own medicine. The company also reportedly deducted salary from workers who took leave.

Equidem spoke with migrant workers employed by six subcontractors of construction giant Saudi Aramco - their employers had failed to pay wages owed before the pandemic, during or both. In one case, workers employed by subcontractor Badr H. Al-Hussaini & Sons Co. reported that their employer does not pay wages on time - workers are waiting on salary from as far back as 2014 with no explanation. They also reported that the company will not grant no objection certificates and have withheld workers' salaries and vacation pay so that they are unable to take holiday and see family.
Another worker told Equidem that the company only renewed workers' iqamas (residency permits) every 3-4 years; they last expired in December 2019. Without iqamas workers are unable to access the health system, transfer money home or leave the country. They are also afraid to leave the labour camp in case police arrest them.

In November 2020, NGO Equidem launched a report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on migrant workers in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, based on 206 interviews with workers.
Equidem spoke with migrant workers employed by six subcontractors of construction giant Saudi Aramco - their employers had failed to pay wages owed before the pandemic, during or both. In one case, an employee of National Recruitment Company of Saudi Arabia, (NATREC) told Equidem they had not been paid since January 2020 and that when employees asked for wages they were threatened by the company if they spoke out. The company also fired employees without granting their owed wages or end-of-service benefits and that workers had insufficient food. One worker who worked throughout the lockdown said workers felt threatened by the possibility the company could bring an absconding case against them if they complained.
Another worker told Equidem their iqama (residency permit) had expired at the beginning of 2020 meaning they cannot access the public health system. During the lockdown he and many others fell ill but were unable to go to the hospital and the company reduced salaries for taking sick leave. One worker with an expired iqama told Equidem that the company had taken his pasport.
Workers also raised fears of a lack of social distancing, citing crowded conditions of hundreds of people in one building and 250 people sharing one kitchen.
One Bangladeshi worker reportedly committeed suicide; a co-worker attributed the cause to stress and anxiety directly linked to the fact the company did not pay wages.

시행된 조치: IHG provided a statement saying that due to the pandemic a number of staff had been made redundant and a number had been placed onto unpaid leave to preserve jobs. Said provided food and accomodation and also funded repatriation.
Governments and businesses in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and, to a lesser extent in Qatar, have been guilty of racial discrimination in their response to the COVID-19 pandemic, acting quickly to provide financial and other benefits to local business and nationals, while leaving thousands of migrant workers in jobless destitution and, in some instances, facing death, and the ever-present risk of being infected by a deadly virus...
Equidem’s research uncovered cases of unpaid wages and other exploitation that cut across sectors and businesses big and small. Companies have placed migrant workers on drastically reduced salaries or unpaid leave without their consent and inadequate monitoring by state authorities...
These practices have only been possible because the Governments of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar weakened labour protections and then failed to adequately enforce laws and programmes on wage payments. This made it easier for employers to reduce salaries or terminate employment contracts, leaving thousands of workers in situations of forced labour and modern slavery virtually overnight.
