JEDDAH, 24 March 2008 — Labor Minister Dr. Ghazi Al-Gosaibi said yesterday that a ban on recruiting Bangladeshi workers was only limited to certain jobs, such as domestic servants and farm hands.
Al-Gosaibi said the Kingdom would continue to recruit Bangladeshi doctors and engineers, as well as cleaning and maintenance staff for government departments.
“The restriction was imposed in line with the policy of limiting the maximum number of workers hired from a single country,” Al-Gosaibi said, adding that the ban would be reconsidered in the future.
