The Domestic Workers’ Recruitment Offices In A Difficult Position
The Kuwaiti Federation of Domestic Workers’ Office Owners expressed its surprise at the Ministry of Trade’s decision to reduce the maximum price for bringing in domestic workers to 890 dinars instead of 990 dinars. They pointed out that this decision would make it even more difficult to recruit domestic workers, Al Anbaa reported.
The head of the Kuwaiti Federation of Domestic Workers’ Office Owners Khaled Al-Dakhnan confirmed that office owners are disappointed and they feel the new cost is disproportionate to the current situation and the office owners have now become the least favorable party for the recruitment of domestic workers.
According to Khaled Al-Dakhnan, the union had previously refused the reduction of price, and this was also recorded in the minutes of a recent meeting with the Ministry of Commerce and the Manpower Authority. He explained that the union requested the reduction in the price of recruitment from the travel ticket registered on the “Balsalama” platform because its specified value there is 200 dinars, while its real price is much lower.
Al-Dakhnan revealed to the daily about a visit conducted by the Union to the embassies of Indonesia and Benin to open new countries in the field of recruitment.
During the visit, the Indonesian side demanded many requests, foremost of which is the cancel the sponsor system.
Al-Dakhnan called on the concerned authorities for more cooperation with the Union.
