Employment Standards
You mean better standards for employees.
Qatar Financial Centre’s Employment Standards Office (ESO) delivers against this through a number of services, practical tools and communications.
We mean business.
The ESO does this through dispute prevention and compliance monitoring to prevent disputes from happening in the first place. And if they do, then dispute resolution procedures are also in place to assist in resolving disputes amicably.
