SBG expected to clear salaries by end of September
Saudi Binladin Group (SBG) is expected to completely clear the financial dues of its workers by end of next month, according to Mufrej Al-Haqabani, Labor and Social Development Minister. Al-Haqabani said that only one company (Saudi Oger) is withholding payments and that the Ministry will press the expats' salary issue through the Wage Protection System. That said, a top labour official told Federal Minister for Overseas Pakistanis Pir Syed Sadaruddin Shah Rashidi that Saudi Oger had agreed to deliver the passports of Pakistani workers and sort out their unpaid salary issues. Pakistani workers have the option either to stay in the Kingdom by changing the sponsorship to another employer or leave the country with the Ministry of Labor, paying for all travel expenses, to be deducted later from their overdue salaries.
