Document background
The Direct Placement Agreement is essential for companies operating in Qatar who engage recruitment agencies to source and place permanent employees. This document is particularly relevant in Qatar's growing economy, where businesses frequently need to hire both local and expatriate talent across various sectors. The agreement must comply with Qatar's strict labor laws, including Law No. 14 of 2004 and Law No. 21 of 2015 regarding expatriate workers. The Direct Placement Agreement typically includes detailed terms about recruitment services, fee structures, replacement guarantees, and compliance with local immigration requirements. It's designed to protect both the hiring company and the recruitment agency while ensuring transparent processes for candidate placement and payment terms. The document becomes especially crucial when dealing with international recruitment, as it must address Qatar's specific requirements for foreign worker employment and residence permits.
