Kuwait Enforces Electronic Tracking of Private Sector Work Hours
Key Point
- Kuwait implemented Resolution No. 15 of 2025 to regulate private sector working hours through a mandatory electronic system, effective 1 November 2025
Summary of Resolution No. 15 of 2025
Kuwait has officially implemented Resolution No. 15 of 2025, introducing new requirements for tracking working hours in the private sector. Effective immediately, employers must use PAM’s electronic system to record and manage daily schedules, including working hours, rest periods, weekly days off and official holidays.
Under the resolution, employers must enter and regularly update this information through PAM’s designated platform. The electronic record now serves as the official reference for labor inspections and compliance monitoring. Employers must also print and visibly display the approved schedule at the workplace to ensure transparency for employees and inspectors.
PAM emphasized that the electronic schedule replaces all previous paper-based records. Any discrepancies or failure to comply may result in penalties under Law No. 6 of 2010, including partial or full suspension of the company’s labor file.
