The ministry's spokesperson, Mohammad Al-Zyoud, said the ministry is continuing its intensive inspection campaigns to locate domestic workers who have absconded from their jobs, with the aim of regulating the labour market and reducing such cases.

He added that inspection teams are continuing field visits across various areas to identify and apprehend more workers in violation of the law.

Al-Zyoud stressed that the ministry would take the legal measures stipulated under applicable legislation against anyone found to be cooperating with such workers, whether by employing them, sheltering them, or helping them remain absent from their jobs.

He urged citizens and employers not to deal with or employ workers in violation of labour regulations, and to report any violations through the ministry's official channels to protect their rights and maintain stability in the labour market.
