New round of MoE Kuwaitization
KUWAIT CITY, Oct 16: With the upcoming end of the COVID-19 health crisis and the accompanying exceptional repercussions that hindered the approval of some government files and documents, sources from the educational sector revealed that the Civil Service Commission (CSC) will implement another round of Kuwaitization in the month of November for some administrative jobs occupied by expatriates in the Ministry of Education, reports Al-Rai daily.
They denied any prejudice to educational jobs, which according to government promises, will remain fixed at the same previous rate of 70 percent for Kuwaiti teachers and 30 percent for expatriates.
The sources explained that the administrative sector, during the previous years, had concluded the Kuwaitization process for the largest segment of administrative jobs in the ministry, both in its headquarters and in other central departments. In some of the departments, the rate of Kuwaitization is 100 percent. There are jobs for which there are no Kuwaitis registered in the central employment system, including social and psychological service jobs, lab technicians and service implementers.
The last batch of jobs covered by Kuwaitization in the Ministry of Education included a number of accounting, legal and engineering jobs. Educational jobs and psychological and social services jobs were excluded. The Ministry of Education has the highest rate of Kuwaitization among government agencies since the time CSC began preparing its study on the application of the Kuwaitization policy in government agencies in accordance with the rules and procedures for Kuwaitization of jobs.
