  • 23/04/2022

Kuwait City: The authorities are working to develop a system to attract citizens to work in the government sector and increase the job security of those who want to be employed in companies and various sectors. The Civil Service Bureau has decided to implement a project in coordination with the Public Authority for Manpower. Relevant government agencies are trying to increase the number of Kuwaitis in the private sector to more than five per cent on the recommendation of the Cabinet. Of the more than one million workers in the region, only 72,200 are in total.


With this, the concerned authorities are trying to increase the number of national workers in the private sector. The salaries of university graduates and certificate holders working in the private sector are the same as those working in the government sector. Therefore, measures to encourage citizens to enter the private sector will be announced soon. The figures show that by 2021, the number of Kuwaitis working in the private sector will be lower.
