He helped them to shelter and find the company. Later after one month they were able to find the company and joined. Then they started to work, after three months passed they didn’t get any salary and Resident Permit. Only three of them have got their resident permit. The most important thing is that still they have not got their Resident Permit from the company. 3 of them who have got the Resident Permit, their R.P. date also expired before seven months. It is not renewed. They were told that the company holds the salary of 3 months of each worker as a deposit. After the fourth month of their work they got salary for the first time but less than the contract paper. The company paid them only 550 QR. instead of 800. They were working smoothly even though they get Resident Permit; get less salary, no medical facilities etc. But before few months the company has not paid them salary of 3 months. Their salary of starting 3 months is already balance in the company and now also they were not paid for three months. Altogether their balance due salary in the company is of 6 months. There is no food allowances and medical treatment from the company.
