MOHRE offers several official channels for a private-sector labour complaint: the MOHRE smart app, the website's e-services, the call centre, or in person at an approved service or typing centre. You will need your personal and contact details, work permit or labour card information, your employer's details, a clear description of the dispute, and supporting documents such as your contract and salary records. An official channel ensures the complaint is properly registered, assigned to a legal advisor, and tracked. Keep your reference number, and verify current channels on the official MOHRE portal before filing. Full step-by-step guide: Filing a MOHRE labour complaint.
