An average of 80 absconding reports are filed on a daily basis in Kuwait against marginal workers, Head of Freedom Organization for Human Rights Dr Abdulrahman Mohammad said.

He stressed the need to increase awareness about the rights of laborers and the labor law in order to curb the phenomenon of visa trading, which is the main reason behind the huge number of marginal workers in Kuwait.

He lamented that visa traders are the reason behind such high number of marginal workers in Kuwait as well as the greed of these traders to earn money illegally.

He also added that the ministry has been hiring workers to work in the mornings but letting them go to do as they please without any awareness about the activities of these employees in the evenings.
