The Saudi Ministry of Human Resources requested that companies follow the regulations on the employment of Saudi nationals and guarantee that at least 75% of their workforce is expatriate. The ministry requested in a statement that Saudis be drawn to the nation's commercial and industrial facilities, hired, and given appropriate employment prospects.
This decision is a part of the ministry's 'Nitakhat' initiative, which is now in place to determine localization rates in job sectors and categorize businesses appropriately.
