We would like to inform you that according to the Bahrain Labor Law, the visa shall be issued by the sponsor before 60 days, so that is legal violation and you can file a complaint in the labor office.
For the wages, you can file a complaint too as the law provide protection for wages:
Article (40):
(a) Wages and other amounts payable to a worker shall be paid in the Bahraini legal tender and an agreement may be reached for payment thereof in a legally available foreign currency.
(b) Wages shall be paid on a working day and at the place of work subject to complying with the following:
1. Wages of workers paid at monthly rates shall be paid at least once a month.
2. If wages are paid on a production basis and where the work requires a period of more than two weeks, a worker shall receive in every week a payment on account appropriate to the completed work and the balance of the wage shall be paid during the week following that in which he received the wage for the amount of work already completed.
3. Notwithstanding the aforesaid two sub-clauses, workers’ wages shall be paid at least once in every week unless there is agreement to the contrary.
4. If the employment relationship is terminated, a worker shall be paid his wage and all the amounts due thereto immediately unless the worker has left his employment of his own initiative, in which case the employer shall pay the worker’s wage and all his entitlements within a period not exceeding 7 days from the date of leaving his job.
(c) Subject to the provisions of the aforesaid Paragraph, if an employer delays the payment of wages to a worker beyond the date of payment, he shall compensate the worker at the rate of 6% per annum for the wage whose payment has been delayed for a period of 6 months or less from the date of entitlement to the wage. Such percentage shall be increased at the rate of 1% for each month’s delay thereafter up to a maximum of 12% per annum in respect of such wage.
***In the event of obtaining a judicial ruling in your favour, it is necessary to file an enforcement action before the execution court to implement the ruling against the employer. Therefore, you must refer to the lawyer and inquire about the last step or legal procedure taken in this regard.
