The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, represented by the "Professional Accreditation" program, in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has launched the "Professional Verification" service. The first phase of the service will be gradually implemented in 62 countries through a unified platform. This service aims to complement efforts to enhance the efficiency of the labor market and improve the quality of the workforce. It aligns with the ministry's strategy to build an attractive labor market and empower and develop the work environment.
The service aims to ensure that foreign workers obtain verified educational qualifications before entering the Saudi labor market. It focuses on professions and positions that require workers to have an educational and academic qualification. Additionally, it verifies the alignment of the educational qualifications with the required level, field of study, and experience for the occupation.
The "Professional Verification" service will contribute to raising the quality of the foreign workforce in the Kingdom and ensuring that academically unqualified labor does not enter the labor market. It will also emphasize the alignment of experiences and skills with the required qualifications for employment.
It's worth noting that the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, through the "Professional Accreditation" program, aims to regulate the labor market, improve the quality of the workforce, enhance the provision of professional services, and boost productivity.
