Policy and Supply and Demand
Various programs to increase employment in the healthcare sector have recently been introduced in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. As a result, an increasing number of foreigners have been provided with the opportunity work in the Kingdom. Studies show that 30% of the workforce in Saudi Arabia consists of expatriates (expats), or individuals from other countries who reside in the Kingdom.
Assuming the role of Director of Human Resources, you have been tasked with filling a number of open positions in your hospital. One strategy you are considering is to recruit expats. There are national policies and procedures that employers must follow before recruiting for and hiring expats. Create a PowerPoint presentation for your facility’s Board of Directors with the following heading items in your submission:
- Identify and describe an open position that needs to be filled.
- Rationalize the need for this position.
- Explain national policies that restrict expat employment in the Kingdom.
- Describe how to “sell” the strategy of recruiting and hiring expats to the Board of Directors.
- Conclusion.
