The Arab country plans to spend up to $100 billion in infrastructure projects between 2013 and 2022. Various companies like CH2M Hill, KBR, and Parsons Brinckerhoff are associated with many of Ashghal's projects. Criticisms. Ashghal has been awarded many contracts and infrastructure projects contributing to preparations for the 2022 World Cup in Doha. Qatar has received a substantial amount of criticism and controversy surrounding their  World Cup bid, most of which surrounds the treatment labor workers hired for infrastructure projects. Reports from multiple sources estimated that roughly 4000 migrant workers would lose their lives in the building process, many of them unaccounted for, one estimate claiming at least one worker a day would die. Sharan Burrow, of the International Trade Union Confederation claimed that the workers were "basically slaves", claiming that "the Qatari government [has] no commitment to human rights".
