HRMS - Employee Preliminary Status


I would like to discuss few points in relate with Human Resource functions,  which is specific to Qatar. A business owner,  should know certain formalities, must be done in order to legalize their employees stay in Qatar. Once a staff arrives in Qatar, a medical test is to be performed by the concerned authorities. The medical test is compulsory for all forms of residency permit and this must be done during the first week of being in Qatar. Medical unfit employees will not be granted approval to stay and will be requested  to leave the country. In addition to the medical check, the employee must pass a criminal records check by the Finger Printing process. If medical is approved and criminal records are clear, then the employee can proceed to obtain his/her work residency.

If an organization delays their employee’s Medical Check/ Finger Printing/ Residence Permit (RP) more than the specified period, they will got penalty for each day. For a business enterprise, it is very important to track each and every employee arrivals in Qatar and their status on Medical/Finger until completes their RP process. So a Business owner should be vigilant always to do the things by the HR person on time without delay.  

The employee initial HR procedure until RP can be shows as follows:
Argus HRMS provides easy options to manage  employee preliminary HR status whether they completed Medical/ Finger/ RP with date and comments. As a default the newly joined employee on pending status,  need to carry out all those procedures like Medical, Finger, etc. The HR user will get the corresponding reminder to do the needful on time as per the parameter settings. On completion of each procedure, he can update in the system to go further procedures.
