Al-Yusuf Meets with Company Leaders to Address Past Issues
The First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, Sheikh Fahad Al-Yousif, revealed that the government is reviewing approximately 10,000 companies with more than five employees, some of which have not paid their workers' salaries for months, with delays in some cases reaching up to four months. He also pointed out practices that damage Kuwait's reputation within the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), such as citizens registering for fake salaries, noting that one citizen was registered to receive a salary of 3,000 Kuwaiti dinars, but only receives 180 dinars monthly. He explained that authorities have suspended the activities of 10,000 companies due to non-compliance with salary payments, emphasizing that violators will be dealt with strictly. Additionally, he stressed the importance of regulating the labor market and combating chaos, along with considering the transfer of government contracts and activating measures against violating companies to ensure workers' rights and improve Kuwait's financial reputation.
