Shoura seeks evaluation of programs for job seekers

During its fourth regular session on Monday, the Shoura Council will discuss a proposal by the Committee on Administration and Human Resources to assign a neutral body to conduct an annual evaluation to identify the qualifications of job seekers and beneficiaries of Hafiz program who are experiencing difficulties in finding jobs.
The study will also identify the compatibility between the program’s actual training outputs and predetermined objectives, as well as how long citizens remain in their jobs after their hiring.
The committee is also proposing that the Human Resources Development Fund (HRDF) allocate incentive programs in accordance with unemployment levels in different Saudi cities in order to ensure more employment opportunities for job seekers in their areas of residence.
The Shoura Council will resume its work of the fourth year of its sixth term on Monday, looking at a number of additional recommendations submitted by members regarding the annual report of the Saudi Red Crescent. This comes after the council voted in its previous sessions on the recommendations of the Health Committee and after listening to the views of members of the committee discussing the contents of the reports.
