The Public Authority for Manpower is in the process of giving final touches to a law that will allow domestic workers (Article No. 20) to transfer their work permits to the private sector (Article No. 18). The decision is nearing completion and is expected to be issued before the end of this week. One of the key conditions for transfer is that the worker must have worked with the sponsor for a minimum of one year as domestic worker.
After meeting this requirement, the workers in this category will be eligible to transfer to the private sector. Sources emphasized that transferring a domestic worker’s work permit to the private sector is permissible across various domains such as government projects, SMEs (small and medium enterprises), or any other sector, contingent upon approval from the initial sponsor. In this case the workers are assured full labor rights in the private sector.
