Kuwait is set to take steps to reorganise its labour market prompted by economic impact of the global coronavirus pandemic, according to Al Anba newspaper reports.

At the beginning of the New Year, the Public Authority of Manpower will issue several decisions regulating the work market after conducting a comprehensive assessment of the labour scene during the current year and the repercussions of the pandemic, Al Anba newspaper reported, citing a well-informed source at the state agency. 


The expected decisions include estimates of employers’ needs of registered migrant and national workers as well as drawing up a plan of “Kuwaitising” a number of jobs, mainly the administrative ones, the source added.

The steps will also involve a study on increasing the numbers of Kuwaiti employees replacing expatriates in line with a law aimed at modifying the country’s population.
