Manama – The Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) carried out 741 inspection visits between June 22 and 28, 2025, uncovering 19 illegal workers and deporting 139 violators of Bahrain’s labour and residency laws.

During this period, LMRA teams conducted 729 standalone inspections across all governorates and joined 12 coordinated campaigns—two each in the Capital and Muharraq governorates, three in the Northern Governorate, and five in the Southern Governorate. Key participants included the Ministry of Interior’s General Directorate of Nationality, Passports and Residence, the various provincial security directorates, the Coast Guard Command, the Social Insurance Organization, and the Supreme Council for Environment.

Inspectors identified multiple breaches of the Labour Market Regulatory Authority Law and the Kingdom’s Residency Law. Legal action has been initiated against all recorded offences.

LMRA reaffirmed its commitment to working closely with government partners to intensify inspection efforts nationwide, safeguarding marketplace stability, economic security, and social well‑being. The authority also called on the public to support these efforts by reporting any labour law violations or illegal employment practices via its online complaint form at www.lmra.gov.bh, through the national suggestions and complaints system (Tawasul), or by calling the LMRA Contact Centre at 17506055.
