The CEO of Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC), Sheikh Nawaf Al-Saud Al-Sabah, has announced a new initiative to implement an electronic attendance and departure tracking system across all affiliated companies in Kuwait. This directive aims to bolster employee oversight and promote fairness in the workplace.

Implementation of Electronic Attendance System

Sheikh Nawaf has empowered the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors and the CEO of KPC to enforce this new policy, following directives from the Council of Ministers. The implementation of this electronic system is designed to improve tracking mechanisms for employee attendance and departures, ensuring that resources are allocated efficiently.

• Importance of Tracking: The electronic attendance system is expected to streamline attendance management and enhance transparency within KPC's affiliated companies.

Encouraging National Talent

Informed sources have indicated that KPC is not only focusing on attendance tracking but also on fostering national talent. This initiative seeks to ensure that all employees are treated equitably, addressing concerns over fictitious job advertisements related to KPC and its subsidiaries.
