Who's covered
Retirement pension contributions apply to Qatari national employees in government and private-sector roles. Expat employees are covered by end-of-service gratuity from their employer instead, not this pension scheme.
How contributions work
Both employee and employer contribute a percentage of the employee's pensionable salary — funding a retirement pension based on years of contribution and final salary, similar in principle to other GCC national pension schemes.
