Bahrain employees return to work

The Bahrain International Circuit has officially welcomed back the staff members reinstated after last year's political unrest.

Having missed out on last year's grand prix due to the unrest, Bahrain is back on the calendar this season with the circuit officials rehiring staff who they had sacked in early 2011 after they were found to be breach of their contracts.

"In accordance with the directives of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, in the spirit of reconciliation - following with the recommendations of the BICI report - the Board of the Bahrain International Circuit warmly welcomes back our employees and looks forward to them rejoining the BIC family," said Zayed Rashid Al Zayani, Chairman of the Board at BIC.

"We are approaching a crucial time of the year at BIC, with the hosting of the Formula One Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix coming up in three months' time. We look forward to working again as one unit, as we have done in the past, to show the world what Bahrain is really about."
