No recruitment of expatriate graduates below 30 years starting from July 1st

The Public Authority for Manpower (PAM) set July 1, 2018 as the date for implementing the decision to stop the recruitment of expatriates who hold university certificates and are below 30 years old, reports Al-Rai daily.

According to local media, the decision was supposed to be implemented at the beginning of this year but Minister of Social Affairs and Labor and State Minister for Economic Affairs Hind Al-Sabeeh requested for postponement in order study the technical aspect thoroughly.

Deputy Director General of the Planning and Professional Skills Accreditation Sector at PAM Dr Mubarak Al-Azmi confirmed that the authority will apply the decision on July 1, 2018. He clarified it is better to review the decision carefully rather than implementing it immediately only to suspend it later, especially
since it is included in the electronic system.
