In May 2020, 500 Nepali oil and gas workers in Ruwais went on strike in protest that their employer had not cleared their dues. Most of the workers have been confined to their accommodation for two months while the company has not paid them anything owing to the COVID-19 crisis. The company was not named in the article, but a Facebook video that circulated on social media, as well as an activist who contacted BHRRC regarding the case, confirmed the workers' employer was oil and gas company AMBHertel, a subsidiary of France-HQ'ed company Altrad. Le Monde later reported that workers had paid recruitment fees.
