The Public Authority for Manpower said that it will not pay an excellent work reward to its employees who take care of the disabled or who have received reduced working hours based on medical reports or for any other reason.
The authority stated it based its non-disbursement on the recommendation of a study prepared by the Legal Department about the beneficiaries of the Excellent Reward payment for its workers, indicating that “whoever obtained a reduction in working hours based on a medical report, or those caring for a disabled person and availed the facility of reduction in daily working hours, is not entitled to disbursement of the reward based on a set of controls.
“One of the conditions for disbursement is that the employee should have obtained an efficiency report with an actual excellent rank, should not be partly or completely delegated to an external party, and should not have obtained a total exemption or reduced hours, from the Medical Council, pregnancy or breastfeeding, whether at the beginning or end of working hours,” said the authority.
