Frequently Asked Questions

Employees can submit a formal complaint through this platform - Labour Administration Management Information System (LAMIS). The Complainant should endeavour to submit detailed information and any supporting documentation.

The Labour Administration Management Information System is an online web application system of the Labour Administration Department of the Ministry of Gender Labour and Social Development (MGLSD). The LAMIS has been adopted by the department to digitize the labour administration process, such as: - • Labour Case reporting and management • Employer Labour Returns submission • Employer Collective Termination • Transfer and Mergers • Labour Union Application and Registration.

Employer returns are periodic reports submitted to the department detailing employment figures, wages paid, and other employment-related data. They help ensure compliance with labour laws.

Employers are required to notify the Labour Department at least 30 days before the collective termination through a formal written notice, including reasons and the number of employees affected.
