Kuwait Petroleum Corporation and its subsidiaries are making significant progress in implementing the Kuwaitization program for contractor contracts, according to Al-Anbaa. The data reveals that the program aims to Kuwaitize a total of 1,211 jobs across five oil companies by the end of 2024. With approximately 629 jobs subject to Kuwaitization, Kuwait Oil Company has the largest number of jobs subject to Kuwaitization.

Approximately 507 positions are available at Kuwait Integrated Petroleum Industries Company (KIPIC), 46 positions are available at Kuwait National Petroleum Company, 28 positions are available at Kuwaiti Industry Company Petrochemicals, and one position is available at Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company (KUFPEC). Among the oil companies, the Kuwait Gulf Oil Company and Kuwait Petroleum International are actively working on developing an employment plan to ensure the hiring of Kuwaiti workers in alignment with their contracts under the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation.

Under the workforce restructuring program and the state's executive apparatus, contractors in the oil sector receive various benefits, including social bonuses and children's bonuses. It is important to note that these bonuses are separate from the employees’ wages. Furthermore, employees in certain regions, known as Region 2, are eligible for a site grant, while those in Region 3 receive different benefits like an annual travel ticket for the worker and one spouse. The value of this ticket is 200 dinars per person and is granted after completing one uninterrupted year of work.

An incentive bonus corresponding to the maximum amount of the worker's net monthly salary is given to Kuwaiti workers who demonstrate excellent performance and discipline at work. Additionally, an immediate bonus, not exceeding one month’s salary, may be granted by the contractor with written approval from the company. As part of Kuwaitization, Kuwaiti workers receive corresponding wages according to their job grade and location, which include various allowances such as road transportation allowances. Social insurance contributions, however, are the responsibility of workers.

Kuwaiti workers are also entitled to medical insurance, which is provided by the contractor within 30 days of signing the employment contract. The annual cost of this insurance should not exceed 250 dinars and must cover the worker and their family members. Kuwaiti workers are also entitled to 42 days of annual leave. Lastly, at the end of their contracts, Kuwaiti workers who have received a performance evaluation of no less than good are entitled to an allowance equivalent to half a month’s salary for each continuous year of service. An allowance is paid once at the end of the contract period, and the company compensates the contractor accordingly.
