The club urged the workers to legalize their status by July 3.
The meeting was held at the residence of Pakistan Consul General Aftab Khokhar, under the auspices of his wife Afshan Khokhar.
Khokhar, who is also the chairperson of the club, said the group wants to spread awareness among distressed Pakistanis about the amnesty period.
She advised the members of the club to spread accurate information among laborers of the expat community to seek assistance at their consulates for finding employments, since a number of firms are now liaising with consulates in search of jobs.
These jobs include that of drivers, laborers construction workers, electricians and plumbers.
She lauded the efforts done by club in various fields, including philanthropic initiatives.
Nighat Nadeem Farooque, coordinator, and Rubila Jamil, assistant coordinator, thanked the members for attending the meeting and shouldering their social responsibility.
