The Indian embassy in Kuwait on Monday issued an advisory for Indian drivers coming on work visas after rising cases of shady recruitments. It said more Indians are hired as "restaurant drivers" but later deployed by employers named "consumer orders" as illegal food delivery bike riders. Terming it a breach of job contract, the embassy asked emigrants to retain passports, not hand them over to agents, and ensure having an employment visa before leaving. The advisory also listed guidelines like checking if the employer is registered, reporting coercion, and informing the embassy about disputes. It urged vigilance against delivery driver traps forcing hazardous work violating Kuwaiti laws. READ THE FULL ADVISORY IN THE LINK BELOW.
