Saudi contractors ask ministry to supply Saudi workers

  • Saudi Arabia: Saturday, December 01 - 2012 at 03:37

Construction firms in Saudi Arabia have requested the labour ministry to supply them with sufficient Saudi workers to replace foreign workers and fulfil the ministry's demand to increase the number of Saudis to more than 50% in their companies, Arab News has reported. A group of 20 contractors representing construction sectors such as roads, buildings, water projects and electrical installations, said in a press meeting at the Riyadh Chamber of Commerce and Industry (RCCI) that if Saudi workers were not found, they preferred to halt their contract works and face fines for delayed projects rather than pay the huge fees.
