Ahmad Al-Ghamdi, director of public relations at the Labor Ministry, said the testing of the new electronic program proved successful. The ministry is planning to transform all its services to an electronic system.

Speaking to Arab News, he said the ministry will launch this service by the next week. The recruitment process will be done within a short period in accordance to agreements with other countries which send workers to the Kingdom.

Meanwhile, Tayseer Al-Mufrej, director of the media center at the Ministry of Labor, said the ministry took the measures to improve the recruitment of domestic labor services through facilitating procedures in order to safeguard the rights of employers and workers, and to enhance the protection of the rights of all parties.

The Ministry of Labor had started giving permission to six recruitment companies to issue 1.2 million visas to hire housemaids, laborers, drivers and other workers for occupations needed in the Saudi market. These visas include the countries from which recruitment of workers is allowed and include Bangladesh, India, the Philippines, Morocco, Tanzania, Uganda, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Mauritania.

Mohammed Aslam, a human resource director at a private company, praised efforts of Labor Ministry to improve the recruitment process which was previously taking a long time. Private companies were spending money and wasting time to recruit workers.

Adel Shuaib, another human resource official at a construction company in Jeddah said the new electronic service will facilitate recruitment of workers as there is a need to recruit them in construction projects.

This is convenient if you oown multiple websites
and blogs which can be aall managed from one account.
Conclusion- It is a good idea to manage your personal website to promote your
product but this is really not needed. It takds time, but it
is far better to aim for 100 recipients that are genuinely interested in what you hav to offer
and share your values, than to aim for 100,000 random recipients.

Riyadh, Mar 18: Private-sector businesses in Saudi Arabia on Wednesday were ordered to introduce enforced remote working for all employees for 15 days in an attempt to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

Businesses that require staff to be physically present to ensure they continue to operate — including those in vital or sensitive sectors such as electricity, water and communications — must reduce the number of workers in their offices to the bare minimum. This can be no more than 40 percent of the total number of staff.

In such cases precautionary measures set by the Ministry of Health must be followed. At offices, and staff accommodation, with more than 50 workers, an area at the entrance must be provided where temperatures can be taken and symptoms checked.

Employers must also set up a mechanism for workers to report any symptoms, such as high temperature, coughing or shortness of breath, or contact they have had with infected individuals or people who recently returned from other countries without following proper Ministry of Health quarantine procedures.

Inside offices, a safe amount of space between employees must be maintained at all times. In addition, all health clubs and nurseries provided by employers must close.

Pregnant women and new mothers, people suffering from respiratory diseases, those with immune-system problems or chronic conditions, cancer patients and employees above the age of 55 are to be given 14 days compulsory paid leave, which will not be deducted from their annual entitlement.

Businesses that are excluded from the new measures include pharmacies and supermarkets, and their suppliers. Private-sector organizations that provide services to government agencies must contact them before suspending workplace attendance. Any other business that considers it impossible to operate with only 40 percent of staff in the workplace must submit an exemption request to the authority that supervises it.
