Bahrain Begins New Social Insurance Protection for GCC Citizens Working Abroad
The General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI) has announced the start of applying Article 12 of the Unified System for extending social insurance protection to citizens of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries working outside their home countries, in any other GCC member state. This move comes in line with Law No. 68 of 2006 and follows decisions made at the 23rd meeting of heads of civil retirement and social insurance authorities in the GCC countries. GOSI emphasized that this step reflects its commitment to activating shared Gulf regulations and ensuring continuous insurance coverage for GCC citizens. The aim is to protect their insurance rights and create a stable working environment. The organization also urged employers to review their insurance situations, confirm that all due contributions are paid on time, and avoid delays. Private sector employers who delay paying insurance contributions for GCC nationals working in Bahrain will face additional charges. To help explain the details of Article 12 and answer related questions, GOSI will organize an online workshop soon. The workshop link will be shared via email and GOSI's official social media pages. GOSI reaffirmed its dedication to working closely with all private sector entities to support them in fulfilling insurance obligations, benefiting both employers and insured individuals alike.
