Thanks for joining and trusting us, much appreciated!

We would like to inform you that according to the the labor law in Qatar:

Article (97)
The nursing female worker shall be entitled in addition to her entitlement to the rest interval provided for in Article (73) of this law during the year following the year of delivery to a nursing interval which shall not be less than one hour per day. The fixing of the nursing times shall be made by the female worker. The nursing interval shall be calculated as part of the working hours and shall not result in a deduction of wage.

Therefore, if this does not fit with your wife and she wants to leave the work and the contract is of unlimited, you can give an notice to the employer and leave the work. However, if the contract is limited, in this case, if your wife leaves the work before the end of the work period, she may be exposed to a ban to work in Qatar, unless there is a breach by the employer or non-payment of salary, in this case, she is entitled to leave the work before the end of its term.
