Qatar 2022 World Cup stadium workers went months without pay - Amnesty
A Qatari company helping build a 2022 World Cup stadium has been banned from the event’s projects after its labourers went unpaid for months...
Qatar’s government communication office said QMC had been financially sanctioned and its operations suspended until all outstanding salaries were paid.
The company has since been sold and actions by the new owners to rectify “the neglect of the previous owner,” including renewing residency permits and health insurance, are being overseen by the labour ministry.
“The State of Qatar does not tolerate the unscrupulous treatment of workers,” it said.
