Citizens urged to exclusively use K-Net at labor offices.

KUWAIT CITY, Jan 8: The Public Authority for Manpower and the Ministry of Commerce have urged citizens to use K-Net cards when dealing with labor recruitment offices exclusively. Additionally, they encourage individuals to report any offices not adhering to announced prices or refusing to accept K-Net transactions. Complaints can be filed promptly by contacting the Public Authority for Manpower hotline (96966595) and the Ministry of Commerce hotline (135) — Non-compliance with Ministerial Resolution No. (2) of 2024, issued on January 7, 2024, will be subject to investigation.

Both entities are establishing a collaborative committee between the Ministry of Interior, Manpower, and the Ministry of Commerce to oversee inspections of labor recruitment offices. Strict legal measures will be taken against any offices violating ministerial decisions, the Domestic Workers Law, and its executive regulations, to safeguard citizens' rights.
