The Labour Ministry affirmed that it does not, under any circumstances, nominate jobseekers or contact them to recommend them for vacancies posted on the National Employment Platform.
Instead, it is the jobseekers who select the vacancy that suits them on the platform and nominate themselves once they find an appropriate offer, it added, responding to a question by MP Mohammed Al Ahmed.
The ministry explained that it does not rely on any data provided directly by an employer in cases involving conflicting statements between jobseekers and hiring entities, according to our sister paper Akhbar Al Khaleej.
The ministry only adopts the nomination results recorded on the National Employment Platform after they are evaluated and verified by the ministry staff, a process that ensures jobseekers are not harmed by any inaccurate claims.
The ministry further stated that it has implemented several procedures to prevent disagreements between employers and jobseekers regarding interview outcomes.
Jobseekers’ interview invitations with employers are formally documented through the Government Notifications System operated by the Information and eGovernment Authority. Notifications are sent to jobseekers through four channels: SMS messages, email, the National Employment Platform, and the Government Notifications Platform, the ministry clarified.
Interviews are conducted in the presence of a ministry employee, who records the details of the interview and maintains a dedicated record of its proceedings.
