Labourers to be relocated from overcrowded accommodations
TDT | Manama
Labour workers living in overcrowded accommodations are to be relocated to government facilities. This was revealed yesterday by Interior Minister General Shaikh Rashid bin Abdullah Al Khalifa in a meeting with Bahrain’s Governors as a new measure to help curb the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The Interior Minister asserted that governorates must reduce overcrowding in labour camps, especially in illegal labour accommodations, and distribute these residents to government facilities such as schools, sports clubs and youth centres, according to the considerations of the governorates. He highlighted that it is essential for the governorates to list the labourers, their accommodations, and the places they would be shifted to. To achieve this, the Interior Minister advised to form a team of representatives in each governorate, and suggested associating volunteers for such operations.
