 you are a domestic worker, and you are a household manager, and you are a maid. How do you change your visa to a new employment? Remember, when we are talking about domestic workers, when we are talking about housemaids, when we are talking about helpers it is a different scenario. And when you look at all situations, We are talking about different contracts at the end of it all. Remember, for example, when we are talking about housemates in Katal, their contracts, their probation period is far different from other workers in Katal. Remember, your probation period is supposed to be nine months. That is according to the government. It's supposed to be nine months. And you're supposed to serve that nine months. Otherwise, if you don't complete those nine months, that means your recruitment agencies has to refer or has to refund back the money to the person who was hiring him or to that family that hired you. That's why normally it's always very important for you to first finish up the nine months. But apart from that, remember, you always do what we call your sign contracts and those contracts that are being signed. But what I can advise you, before you think of changing in one war with the other, it's better you first finish up that contract. If you finish up that contract and you feel you cannot go with that family anymore or if you feel you cannot go with that employer anymore, there are a lot of situations that are challenges that may face in one war with the other. For example, if your employer or if your family is not willing you to let you go or transfer to a new employment, then that is well and good. You just know that in some situations you may encounter such kind of situations whereby they will not let you go or they cannot let you just go like that to change to a new employment. But again, this does not stop you because remember, its perseverance is the best weapon and yours have to be positive whatever you have to do in one war with tuition. And this is what I will advise you to do because someone will say, how can you change the housemaid visa? It's possible. First of all, the first situation, the first instance of first situation that you need to understand or you need to have in your mind is that have you got a new offer? If there is someone else that is willing to take you on and you finish your contract, you can resign from your contract, you may not sign an extension of your contract and go to someone else. But remember that when you look at the procedure, you are going to follow the same procedure like anyone else who is changing from one employment to another. In case you are going to change from that employer to a new employer within the country, there are two different cases. If you are going to change within the country, it is another situation. If you are going to exit the country and come back as a new entrant on a new visa, it is another situation also. Remember domestic workers, house helpers, house maids, they are all entitled to other benefits. The other workers in Qatar are entitled to the gratitude. You are also entitled to gratitude. I mentioned that. You are also entitled to rest the hours like other people are getting. You are also entitled to break times at intervals because you are not supposed to work a full consecutive 12 hours without a break. It is five hours consecutive, then you have to get a break of one hour. I don't know whether some of you are out there, you get those breaks, but you are entitled to those breaks. You are entitled to prayer time. In case you have to go for prayer, you are entitled for that break to have the prayer. I am trying to say that if you are winning, if you really gear up to changing from the house maid to a new employment, first of all, first look for someone to give you the job. Look for someone who is going to take you, who is going to give you what you call a job offer. If someone gives you a job offer and is willing to take you on at that situation, that means yes, you ready to let it go, you ready to start up to go. But remember when you look at the government requirements or the needs of labour requirements procedure for you to change a new employment, you need to get approval. You need to get approval from your former employee or your former family has to approve that we have let it go in a very good harmony. That is how it is very different. You need to get approval, you need to get signature approval that I am letting this person to go. Then still much as this new person has given you what you call a job offer, he also has to approve, he also has to sign that I have accepted to take up this person. That is where the whole process is going to start from. So first of all, finish up your contract. It is very important if your house maid you have been domestic worker, if you are your house helper, first finish up that contract. Please don't contract within the contract. For example, you send a contract of two years and you want to break after one year contract. It is going to be a little bit very hard for you because I don't think that family is going to allow it to let you go unless you are going to exit the country. If you are going to resign and go out of the country and you get a fresh visa, then that is okay. But if you are thinking of changing from here, it may be a little bit very tricky and very hard because this person will not approve you going to the next person, to the new employer and for the means of labour, the requirement is that if you are domestic worker, if you are helper in one or the other, you are supposed to get a signature, you are supposed to get an approval that this former employee or former family is letting you go without anything attached to you. That is what you need to know. But if you are going to get someone that is willing to take on you is accepting you to go, then that is where you go. You have a right, they will sign for you, they will go and change. If there is any amount this one has to give this one, then probably they will say to that one. That means even the new employer that is going to recruit you is going to get it very easy to process all the documents for you. That is what the whole situation of it all is. Remember your probation period is nine months and the requirement for you to change is that you are supposed to first finish up the contract that you signed. Because if you don't finish up that contract, that recruitment agency that took you there or that hired you to that family will have to refund part of the money to the family. That is by the requirements. You all know what we call the price caps for different nationalities who are working as housemaids. Different nationalities from different houses from different countries have what you call different house caps. The hiring caps are very different. So this recruitment agency will also not be willing to agree to refund because of you leaving the job. So that is why I say normally the advice will be for the first advice. Before I can show you the procedure on how you can do it manually. But the whole procedure of it all first finish up the contract. If it is five years and you agree to first, it is two years and you agree to first finish up the two years. And finish up the two years then you can move. Otherwise you move up, you finish your contract and you get someone else out there that is giving you a good job, is giving a job or is giving a new job offer. You willing to take on, you can take on. It's no problem, you go on. But remember if you are going to apply within the country, you are changing from your kataidi to a new kataidi which is of a different job, then you have to go under the same procedure of the Ministry of Labor where you need to get approval, you need to submit your contract, you need to submit a copy of your asserted contract. Yes, that is very important. Yes, when you get to those families, get a copy of your asserted contract. A copy that is certified by the Ministry of Interior. Ask your own, ask your family, ask your employer, where is my copy, have that copy, keep it. That copy is going to be very important for you if you want to change, it's very important. Have your passport with you because when you are going to change, they will ask for a copy of asserted contract of the former employee. Why are they asking for that copy? They definitely want to find out whether you've completed that contract that you signed with that person. So get that copy, keep it with you. Have your passport. Get a job offer from the new person who is willing to take you or the new job that is willing to take you up. Make sure that that person is also genuine, is going to process the documents for you until the end. But however, what advice you still if all the worst gets to the worst and you have no way the family can only let you go and you can resign and go out of the person. If this company when the new job is willing to recruit you definitely send you the visa to come but for housemates the first advisor will give you, first we need to have that contract if you want to change. If you want to change within the country, otherwise apart from that you definitely have to exit the country and get a new visa for you to return into the country for the new job that you are willing to take. Hope I've tried to share something little bit. Let's get in the comments section tell me what do you what do you want us to talk about in the comments section drop in Alore is very more than happy but remember you have to follow the same procedure if you are going to change within here it's quite possible if you get someone that's going to give you a job offer. Normally what is happening with the change is a job offer and your former employer willing to let you go and a copy of your contract is where it's quite very important and sometimes someone is asking why is it taking so hard for the means of labour to approve or to let people go. First of all I told you something that you need to know you are not going to leave a housemate job and again go to a housemate job these are two competing entities these are two competing jobs so this one will not willing to let you go because you are still in the same line of business he might think you are going to get out of the secrets from this family to this family always people need to take their safety so if you are willing to change and you are going to change as a housemate or a domestic worker think of something that is far away from what you have been doing if you are looking for something look for something that is far away from what you are doing if you are going to change within the country if you want your kataidi if you want a new employer because there is no change of details it is only going to change employer to a new employer kataidi will say the same but again if it is going to be the same competing line of business if you are going to move from a housemate to a housemate you must finish your contract first and this former employer or you former family must be willing to let you go that is what I can let you do thank you so much if you are a driver and something still I also love to let you if you are a driver or a house driver you are entitled to gratitude yes recently I was getting one of the subscribers saying I worked for this family for 10 years yes you are entitled to gratitude if you are going to go baba mama is not going to let you to stop you entitled to your gratitude you have the contract what is very important have that contract with you wherever mama, baba you can feel recruited have that contract with you ask for that contract it is not the contract of mouth it is the contract of words have a copy with you keep it safe because even if you go to the minutes of labor asking this is what happened I have been working for this family for the last 10 years they will definitely ask what is the copy why is the copy of the contract because the contract is the copy of the contract sitting from there so normally if you go in those families make sure you keep the copy of contract with you safe if it is your recruitment agency that hired you to go to that family ask that recruitment agency to have that asserted copy of the contract that is approved by the minutes of interior thank you so much for coming back this channel is mixed from the next question see you again in the next video as we try to discuss more of this important by the way don't forget to hit that notification bell it will be the only way that will be updated only upload a new video see you again in the next video
