Saudi Arabia will start implementing a 70% localisation in project management professions in the private sector starting from February next year, said a report. The move, aimed at boosting the locals' participation in the labour market, is in line with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030.
Saudi Arabia’s non-oil private sector strengthened in May, as the latest Riyad Bank Saudi Arabia PMI showed output increasingly sharply as domestic demand improved and supply chains stabilised.
The contribution of Saudi Arabia's private sector to the gross domestic product (GDP) has doubled in ten years, rising from SAR1.1 trillion ($293.31 billion) in 2016 to about SAR2.3 trillion ($613.28 billion) today, said Minister of Investment Khalid Al-Falih.
