This is achieved through the continuous development of legal, procedural, and legislative tools to combat all forms of Trafficking in Persons, considering the everchanging nature of this crime, as well as protecting the rights of worker and employer alike to maintain a balanced work environment that enjoys flexibility, justice, continuity, and safeguards the rights of all parties without discrimination.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chief Executive of the Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) Nouf Abdulrahman Jamsheer received a delegation from the U.S Department of Labour and U.S Trade Representatives during their visit to the Kingdom of Bahrain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[632,532,1240,1241],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.6 -
