Nationality quota mulled for expats


The permanent committee to solve the expat labor problem at the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor is holding meetings to formulate strategies. Ministry Undersecretary Abdelmohsen Al-Mutairi said there are three topics to be studied by the committee:

1. The possibility of issuing a decision that gives a quota for each nationality.

2. Marginal labor stay in Kuwait should not exceed five years, medium technical labor seven years and skilled labor 10 years.

3. Limit the influx of marginal laborers into Kuwait.

Mutairi asked ministries to present their views on these topics within two weeks.
