Al-Anba daily reports that the work contracts of expatriates still working in government agencies last only one year. The sources explained that all contracts, even using the services of any non-Kuwaitis, are renewed annually, and there are no 5 years or open-ended contracts any more. The sources reassured all Kuwaitis, whether they have children who aspire to obtain a government job or those who are about to graduate and are worried that a job will not be provided for them, that there is no renewal for any expatriate at all as long as a citizen is available to fill any specialization and this applies to all ministries without any exception.

This came in response to a question about the completion of the implementation of Resolution No. 11 of 2017 regarding the rules and procedures for Kuwaitization of government jobs last August, whose implementation period is set at five years, and 22 specialties are still occupied by expatriates.

There are many jobs in these disciplines, including engineering, teaching, education, training, social, educational, and sports services, science, livestock, agriculture, aquaculture, financial, economic, and commercial jobs, law, politics, Islamic affairs, forensic evidence, rescue, and professional and service jobs.
