Saudi Arabia has opened the floodgates of employment for hundreds of thousands of Pakistanis through agreements with five major companies. The strategic partnership aims to generate substantial job opportunities spanning various sectors, including construction, health, finance, engineering, IT, and overhead transmission.
Under this initiative, an impressive 15,000 to 20,000 job positions in Saudi Arabia are set to be filled by skilled Pakistani workers.
The companies involved in this landmark collaboration include Nisma Partner and Al-Rashid Group, Mahara Human Rahsos, Al-Bwani, and Al-Fanar. These famous Saudi construction firms have joined hands to recruit a diverse range of Pakistani talent.
All recruitment processes will be streamlined through the Overseas Employment Corporation, ensuring a transparent and efficient selection process. This move not only reinforces the bilateral ties between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan but also highlights the commitment to fostering economic cooperation and human resource exchange.
The formal agreements were recently signed in Riyadh by Prime Minister Special Assistant Jawad Sohrab Malik, marking a significant milestone in diplomatic and economic relations between the two nations. The ceremony solidified the commitment of both parties to enhancing collaboration and creating mutually beneficial opportunities.
In addition to the direct impact on employment rates, this initiative is expected to contribute significantly to the rise in domestic payments from Pakistani workers in Saudi Arabia.
The arrival of skilled professionals into key sectors of the Saudi economy is predicted to boost productivity and further strengthen the already robust economic ties between the two nations.
For those interested in exploring these employment opportunities, detailed job listings and application procedures can be found on the website of the Overseas Employment Corporation. ( https://oec.gov.pk/)
