I don’t understand one thing about the working system at the ministries and government offices and that is why it takes aeon for a simple task like updating records on computers when it is just a click away. A case in point is the Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA).
Our company was one of the first to register its employees with the LMRA. After everything was done, we got our passports with renewed residence permits and new updated CPRs.
THE Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) said yesterday that Bangladeshis in Bahrain are still required to register, despite their work permits not being renewed following the ban.
“While fresh work permits and renewals have been banned, there is no reason why they should not come and get themselves registered and fingerprinted,” LMRA chief executive Ali Radhi told the GDN.

MORE than 60,000 expatriates registered with the Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) during the first 11 days of its enrolment festival, which opened on June 4.
I WOULD like to know about the registration with the Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) regarding domestic drivers.
Is it compulsory for them to register? If so, what are the requirements?
A friend of mine who is working at a ministry wants to know whether registration with the LMRA is compulsory for him.

* AN LMRA spokesman said: “Domestic labour that are under the sponsorship of individuals or families (housemaids, house drivers, etc) will be mandated to complete all LMRA formalities later this year. However, they can still enrol (register) now at our enrolment centre in Bahrain International Exhibition Centre, until June 21.”
I HAVE visited all LMRA registration centres including those in Saar, Hidd, Sitra and even the Indian Club to get registered. I even went to the centre they opened at the Bahrain International Exhibition Centre last week, but all of them were quite disorganised, to say the least.
All centres have only one registration counter to process data of not less than 200-300 people at any given time.
