The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development said that the mother of a citizen (non-Saudi) is not allowed to work in professions restricted to Saudis.
This came, in response to a citizen’s question on the ministry’s Twitter account, “Is the mother of the foreign (Saudi widow) citizen entitled to work and is counted as Saudization?”
The customer care and social development account confirmed that a citizen’s mother (non-Saudi) is counted within the Emiratisation requirements.
Government figures and data showed that the House of Saud lied and deceived their people and the failure of their plans regarding the Saudization of jobs in the Kingdom and the reduction of record unemployment rates.
Despite the departure of expatriate workers due to the weakness of the economy, the increase in fees for their residency, the high cost of living, and the strict application of the policy of Saudization of jobs, the Kingdom has not succeeded in reducing unemployment rates, whose rate is still very high.
Foreigners dominate all private economic activities inside the Kingdom, and based on the data of the General Authority for Statistics, the failure and lies of the House of Saud clearly show.
