Abstract/Citation
A foreign worker's work permit may not be renewed or may be withdrawn in a number of specified cases, including where the Ministry deems the worker to be competing for employment with Bahraini workers, where he is medically unfit,and where his employer has failed to comply with the State's "Bahrainization" plans. Exemptions from work permit requirements may be granted for temporary work connected with events such as fairs and exhibitions etc., and to cope with unusual increases in the employer's workload. Employers must inform the Ministry whenever a foreign worker leaves his service prior to the expiry of his permit.
