Qatar’s Ministry of Labor organized a workshop on Wednesday to promote policies for the Qatarization of jobs in the private sector.

The officials from the Ministry and a number of private sector companies subject to Qatarization were present.

The workshop discussed the ministry’s policies regarding the Qatarization of jobs in the private sector, according to the new competencies of the ministry set by Amiri Decree No. 57 of 2021. It included a review of the most prominent services provided by the ministry, an investigation of the most prominent challenges facing the private sector, and a proposal to ease procedures, with an aim to ensure the Qatarization of jobs in the private sector.
