New Minimum Wage

Following the new Qatar Labour Law, the employer will be legally required to pay each employee a basic wage of no less than QAR 1,000 a month and provide him/her with decent accommodation and food.

However, the employer may prefer to pay the worker more money so he/she can arrange his/her own food and accommodation.

Here are the terms and conditions to further explain the new law:

​1. If the employer provides the worker with decent food and accommodation (that is, he/she does not pay for food and accommodation). The worker is entitled to a basic wage of at least QAR 1,000.

​2. If the employer provides the worker with decent accommodation, but does not provide him/her with food, he/she is entitled to a food allowance of no less than QAR 300 on top of a basic wage of at least QAR 1,000. In this case, the employee should receive at least QAR 1,300 per month.

​3. If the employer does not provide the worker with accommodation or food, he/she is  entitled to allowances of no less than QAR 300 for food and QAR 500 for accommodation on top of a basic wage of at least QAR 1,000. In this case, he/she should receive at least QAR 1,800 per month.
