Can my employer keep my passport?

No. Across the GCC, confiscating a worker's passport against their will is not allowed — your passport is yours to keep.

What if my salary is not paid?

Keep records, raise it calmly, and if unresolved contact your country's labour authority (MOHRE, Musaned/HRSD, PAM, Qatar Ministry of Labour, LMRA or Oman Ministry of Labour). Electronic salary systems make unpaid wages easier to prove.

Am I entitled to a day off?

Most GCC domestic-worker laws provide a weekly rest day and daily rest hours, plus paid leave. Check your contract and country rules.

Is it free to file a complaint?

The official labour authorities provide complaint channels for workers; you should not pay an agent to access your own rights.
