Oman's Ministry of Labour introduces policies to increase Omani job opportunities, restricting expatriate hires in 30+ professions and reviewing work permit fees.
Oman's Ministry of Labour announced new policies aimed at increasing job opportunities for Omani citizens. Starting September, expatriates cannot be hired in over 30 new professions.
