Held in the Kempinski, Muscat, the event was led by BSA partners Arsalan Tariq, Sahil Taneja and senior associate Shubhangi Pujari who delivered an interactive session on Omani Labour Law, where employees, employers, HR professionals and C-Suite individuals benefited from an in-depth discussion on:
- Rights and entitlements
- Types of leaves
- Working hours and overtime
- Terms of employment contract
- Confidentiality and non-compete
- HR Policy and penalty regulations
- Omanisation
- Recent developments vis-a-vis Oman Labour Law
Part two of the day saw guests and speakers continue the discussions over a networking lunch.
Thank you to our partners at The Oath for assisting in facilitating this successful event, and to all those who attended and provided their own interesting insights and real-life examples of the Omani Labour Law in practice.
