Bahrain Mirror: A number of unemployed and dismissed people complained about the delay in paying the unemployment benefits after more than 6 months on submitting their applications to the Ministry of Labour and Social Development.

The dismissed explained that the reason behind the delay, according to the ministry's employees, is due to a mistake in one of the unemployed data whose name was among the list sent to the social insurance organization, Al-Ayam local reported.

They further stated that the social insurance organization rejected a previous list for a mismatch in the data, which led to a delay in paying the dues of about 1000 unemployed and dismissed.
