Brief
Study on Foreign Labour,
Protection
of their Rights and Simplification of
Relevant
Procedures
This study raises the issue of establishing a public shareholding company
or two companies under the name of "Amala" for manpower.
More organization of labor relationships means easier procedures. Our
research presents a simplified method for facilitating the procedures of labor
transactions on all levels; including the doctor, expert, scientist, physician,
pilot, teacher, mechanic, technician, chef, worker, nanny and housemaid.
Objectives:
First: Simplification, amendment, enactment and redrafting of the labour law(s)
as deemed appropriate by the governments in this regard.
Second: Placing and focusing the responsibilities in specialized authorities and
coping with the development march inspired by the sound leadership for
creativity.
This research discusses the idea of establishing two companies for labour
affairs or two establishments of recruitment on various levels. These proposed
companies should compete with each other to ensure quality and accelerate the
response to different requests. They are intended to be specialized
shareholding labor corporations, as the governmental contribution in them will
not be less than %60. The organizations should be classified on the basis of
the qualitative specialization and depend on the new way of thinking to settle
all labour problems, correct their conditions and protect their rights. As a
consequence, the excellent reputation of the United Arab Emirates will be
internationally enhanced. Further, these companies should seek and cope with
the significant progress and development of the United Arab Emirates in all
fields, whether governmental, semi-governmental, private, shareholding or the
private associations with world awards such as the prizes of LIS and other
international awards to gain the confidence of the government and the public as
well.
Third: Security Level
The proposed labor companies should be run by a very developed
management boards (up to the standard of telecommunication companies and banks
and utilize specialized computer applications with mega memory capacity). These
applications facilitate communication with any member of such labor of various
types and degrees for unfolding its security status at any time and moment. The
responsible body for this wanted person becomes one authority or two only,
which makes the target easier in access and handling in coordination with the
first and last sponsor; Amala Company (labor company). I would like to point
out that the UAE national employing the worker does not become a sponsor, but a
user of this service provided by Amala Company (the role of the UAE sponsor
ceases, as he will not enjoy the legal status of the sponsor as an individual).
The same applies to other organizations employing the worker, as they would not
be the real sponsor of the worker but they would just receive a service from
Amala Company.
Fourth:
Both companies will always play the role of the sponsor to protect
various rights of labor, including financial, legal and health aspects and all
relevant affairs. As for the UAE national, establishment or any governmental or
semi-governmental body, it will primarily be a subscriber with a number or code
and would not have the legal status of the sponsor. The whole issue is a
service provided by Amala (A) and Amala (B) and the subscriber or user of this
service is bound by all terms and conditions in the membership applications. The
membership in Amala (A) and Amala (B) will be based on subscription fees and
provision of a banking guarantee without an expiry date in order to avoid
repetition of applications. The fees of subscription differ according to the
number of required labour regardless of the educational or scientific degrees or
positions. The guarantee is intended to cover the subscription and is not
imposed on every worker.
Fifth: Role of Recruitment Companies (or Amala)
The recruitment companies will replace the Ministry of Labor or cancels
its role entirely in the field of labor only, because they will be the actual
body, main sponsor and first supervisor of labour. Thus, they become the sole
sponsor and first supervisor of all labour inside the United Arab Emirates . Undoubtedly,
this move will help keep the public honesty and homeland security as the
workers are part and parcel of the nation. In other words, the process will be
regulated under a different slogan in terms of quality and development in management
of such matters. There is nothing wrong about creativity and globalization, as
the time is changing and quick procedures should be available in all areas. We
should keep the rights of all parties. Therefore, we can avoid labour strikes
and disobedience and maintain the reputation of the nation on the international
and media levels. There are several people who are waiting for any labour violation
or deprivation from the rights of the third party as earlier occurred. Concerning
the ownership of these labour companies, they should be semi-governmental
shareholding companies with a rate of %60 for example and the remaining
percentage becomes in the form of shares for UAE nationals. The government will
appoint the chairman and a number of members whereas the remaining members are elected
from the shareholders to act in their behalf. The procedure will enable us to
assume the big share from the tasks of the Ministry of Labour, avoid the boring
routine, labour troubles and long queues ultimately, and win in the march of the
nation’s development.
Sixth: Activities of Recruitment Companies
The activities of the recruitment companies would be summarized into
recruitment of labour of all levels according to the request of the subscriber
at any number in line with the requirement of the project, factory, office,
restaurant, school, university, hospital or home and so on. The recruitment
companies should have specialized representation offices in the field of labour
from all levels outside the nation in the countries with the required labour
density daily or as required. These companies should establish labor camps to
accommodate the mobile labour and camps for lease to establishments and
companies with heavy labor. The move will increase the income and push the
stocks of Amala Companies higher.
The subscriber will not visit Amala Companies after the process of
formal subscription. He will obtain a smart electronic card with all
information of the subscriber connected to electronic communication means
(SMS). The company can share the information with the subscribers via e-mail to
make the instructions and reports. For instance, the subscriber sends a driver
application by e-mail or simply calls Amala Company and mentions the
subscription number. Amala Company sends the driver to the house of the
subscriber as soon as possible in return for certain fees from its account
after confirming acceptance of the driver by such subscriber. The said fees
will not exceed one thousand dirhams and are not refundable after six months
from the employment of the driver with the same subscriber.
Seventh: Legal Conditions for Various Categories of
Labour
Whereas Amala Companies are the actual sponsor of labor, they will be
responsible for issuing the visas without referring the subscriber to the
competent departments such as the passports (fulfillment of all legal
conditions of the worker). Thus, the subscriber does not endure the pain of
contacting the authorities and similar measures. Amala Company should be solely
charged with such procedures to ensure governmental coordination and quick
processing. The electronic networking has a role in a manner very far from
intentional or unintentional mistakes and the subscriber will not entirely be
asked to refer to the departments of visas (passports). Amala Company will be
charged with the issue. As for the fees of visas, they are deducted from the
account with Amala Company electronically. Visits and referring to the
departments of immigration and nationality (passports) will be restricted only to
the UAE nationals having the desire to issue or renew the passports and similar
procedures.
Note: The departments of visas can be incorporated with Amala Company in one
building for quick processing, and Amala will also be responsible for issue of
visit visas.
In conclusion, I present this proposal to all decision-makers and
officials at the United Arab
Emirates for research, discussion and
realization of the public good.
If we put this move in a simple equation, we will have 4,000,000 x 000
fees of visas x charges of the medical test x banking guarantees x bank
interests on the deposits x rents of labor camps x funds of the shares. This
equation produces a multi-billion figure from the product of multiplying these
funds.
I hope that the picture is now clearer.
