Under the directives of First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousef, the Public Authority for Manpower has suspended a large number of private sector company files for failing to pay workers’ wages regularly. The action aims to protect workers’ legal rights and uphold Kuwait’s reputation in human rights.
The suspension, based on Article 57 of Labor Law No. 6/2010, does not affect workers’ ability to renew their contracts or transfer to other companies. However, it prevents companies from hiring new workers or completing need assessment transactions until wage issues are resolved.
This measure is considered precautionary, urging employers to transfer salaries through local banks and report to the Authority via the “Ashel” system. Once compliance is achieved, suspensions will be lifted automatically.
The Authority affirmed it will continue monitoring companies and will take legal action against those who fail to meet wage obligations.
