Qatar-bound Filipino workers need not pay placement fees —DMW
The Department of Migrant Workers said Filipinos intending to work in Qatar should not be charged placement fees.
This is in accordance with Article 33 of Qatar Law No. 14 of 2004, the DMW said.
Qatar Law prohibits licensed recruitment agencies from collecting payment for recruitment fees, expenses, or other associated costs from workers coming from abroad.
“The Department of Migrant Workers informs the public that the State of Qatar is considered as a non-placement fee labor-receiving country,” DMW Secretary Hans Leo Cacdac said in an advisory shared on the department’s Facebook page on Saturday.
Those who violate the no placement fee policy will face a penalty of cancellation of license, the DMW said.
The advisory will take effect 15 days after its issuance, the DMW said. —KG, GMA Integrated News
