Insights on Qatar Labor Laws, HR Collaboration, and HR Law Translation

Does anyone have a translated version (English) of the new HR Law that came into effect on 1 April 2009?

Hi! I am an HR professional with expertise in English grammar. I can assist you with any language-related questions or corrections you may have. Just share your text, and I'll make sure it's error-free and effectively conveys your message. Feel free to reach out!

Hi,

I had a copy of Qatar labor laws which was printed in both Arabic and English. You can find this in the Labor Department. If any assistance is required, please let me know.

I have checked, Vinny, but recently, I have come across a paper notification from the Labor Department regarding maintenance of records and registers and about HSE. If you are sure that there are new laws amended from Apr '09, I have to get that print. If I know early, then I will inform you, and you can do the same for me.

Thanks & Regards,
Ramana

Here is the full set of the latest Qatar HR Laws that came into effect on 1 April 2009 in Arabic. Perhaps somebody could get this translated. lol.

Hi Vinnie,

Thanks for sending the laughing out loud emoji, but I don't know Arabic and I was quite busy as my assistant has gone on leave. I managed to spare some time to get the information from the labor department; earlier, I got a copy from there as well.

I am working as an Executive HR in a pipeline company. How about you?

Hi Ramana,

I'm with Aspire Zone Foundation. (Sports Academy and Aspetar are part of the Foundation.)

Hi Vinnie,

It's a great pleasure to meet you. I would like to know the nature of your job and the domain of your organization. I hail from India and work in Punj Lloyd as an HR Executive. We are involved in pipeline projects. Currently, we are executing 5 projects in Qatar, and apart from that, we have projects in Abu Dhabi, Oman, and Yemen.

So, what is the strength of your workforce? Basically, what categories of people work in your company? Please let me know.

Have a nice weekend.

With regards,
Ramana

Hi Ramana,

Aspire Zone Foundation started out as the Sports City Project prior to the Asian Games. Aspire Academy for Sports Excellence, Aspetar (Sports Medicine Hospital), and Aspire Logistics make up Aspire Zone Foundation. So, you can see that there is a broad range of skills required - sports coaches, teachers, medical specialists, engineers, to name just a few. The current staff levels are close to 1000 but will increase shortly.

Over to you......:icon4:

Hi Vinnie,

Nice to see your email. While 1000 may not indicate a small company, we are currently managing 5 projects in Qatar with a total workforce of around 2000, which includes temporary hires. I am currently overseeing a team of 300 and in the process of winding up this project. I am hopeful that I will be transferred to another project soon.

So, what are your responsibilities? I am interested in gathering HR professionals in Doha, and if you collaborate with me, we can initiate engaging meetups to improve our skills and knowledge.

Regards,
Ramana

You can contact me at pvrk71@gmail.com.

Hi Vinnie,

I know a person who works in the Training Department at Al Khaliji Bank and is responsible for gathering people. That's why I am reaching out to you. If we both collaborate on this, we can gather people and start a meetup similar to the one in Dubai, which has been very successful. Why shouldn't we try it too?

Feel free to call me at 5293325.

Hi,

I have completed my MBA in HR from a reputed institute. I have over 2 years of experience in core HR. I am currently seeking HR job opportunities in Gujarat and Indore. Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated as it is urgent.

Thank you.

Hi Vinnie,

Thanks, I expect your call positively. Today I am not feeling well, though I came to the office. It's too hot here; I think the temperature is more than 45 degrees. We are providing cold water and emergency ambulance with a male nurse at our sites under welfare/HSE activities.

Regards,
Ramana

Just called your number now - you didn't seem to know who I was, and it appeared that you hung up the phone.

I left from Doha. Please don't call that number as I have been handed over to another person. Kindly refrain from calling as I am no longer in Doha since I have resigned from my company and left for India. I am sincerely sorry.

Regards,
Ramana

Hi friends,

This is Shamshad from Bangalore, India. I have a Master's Degree in Human Resource Management with over 6 years of experience in Recruitment and Administration. I would appreciate it if you could help me find a job in Qatar.

Thanks and Kind Regards,
Shamshad

Shammi,

The problem is there are too many HR folks around - more HR people than there are HR jobs. Many organizations don't differentiate between good HR practitioners and mediocre ones mainly because they often do not understand the real value add of competent HR staff. In many parts of the world, HR is regarded as merely an administrative office, and that is the real problem. This situation makes it easy for many so-called borderline administration-minded individuals to move into senior HR positions.

Hope you find the "right slot."

Regards

Hello sir,

I have read your emails; both of you are working with good organizations. Could you help me in securing an HR job in any company? I am an HR fresher and currently seeking job opportunities.

Thank you.

Hi, guys,

I am no longer in Qatar; I left at the end of November last year.

All the best in your search.

Regards

Qatar's New Human Resources Law, bearing No. (8) of 2009, is only available in Arabic. However, we can purchase a translation of the said law for $300 as it comprises around 54 pages. Therefore, I propose that all interested individuals (we) may collectively contribute this amount to reduce the overall cost. Kindly advise if you are interested in obtaining an English copy of the law.

Hello,

I have a copy of a translated HR Law of Qatar. This site keeps rejecting the uploading of the attachment.

A piece of advice: always cross-check Arabic and English versions since the copy I have was translated by a private company and not issued by the State of Qatar.

Feel free to call me at 4406-4413 should you need to collect a copy of the translated material that I have.

Hope this helps.
