HR & Recruitment in Kuwait
When expanding to Kuwait youll need to make a few decisions in terms of staffing: decide if you can and want to relocate existing employees, and the processes required to employ foreign nationals (indigenous to your country of expansion).
Employing Foreign Nationals
The fundamental thing to comprehend when it comes to employing indigenous workers is the law. Depending on your location, the employment of staff can be affected by many extraneous factors, such as longevity of service, social charges, collective agreements, qualification and experience, etc.
The Kuwait Manpower Law dictates the percentage of Kuwaiti employees required for private sector foreign companies depends on the company's business activity. The highest rate is 50 per cent for banks. The percentages for Kuwaiti manpower in private sector will apply to all businesses under specified categories employing 100 or more workers and firms having 50-75 expats must employ one Kuwaiti.
International Employees
Yet again, plucking talent from neighbouring countries may not come without its woes. Make sure you know the legislative restrictions and allowances of such a practice. For foreign workers in Kuwait, a Kuwaiti national must sponsor an application for a work permit through the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labour.
Employee Relocation
Perhaps you need someone with talent, experience and reliability. Someone you can trust. Someone with the right understanding of your business to join you overseas. And why not. But you must consider both the cost-effectiveness of such a move, and the laws that preside over it.
