The Ministry of Labour has developed 20 services as part of its efforts to enhance services for all citizens and residents in Bahrain. This comes in line with the comprehensive development process, led by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, and the the directives of HRH the Crown Prince and Prime Minister to develop 500 services across 24 government entities.

His Excellency Jameel bin Mohammed Ali Humaidan, the Minister of Labour, said that the ministry has enhanced various services to simplify procedures, reduce documentation by 50%, and decrease service completion time by 25%, with many services now fully digital. Key developments include digitising the “Foras” (Opportunities) Programme, reducing the completion time from four days to one, and upgrading three services in the Employment Directorate: job vacancy listings, issuing certificates for persons with disabilities, and Bahrainisation certificates.

In the Directorate of Professional Institutes Affairs, eight services were digitised, including renewing private training institution licences, licensing training programmes, and licensing administrative and technical staff and trainers, both Bahraini and foreign.

Safety

In the Directorate of Inspection and Occupational Safety, two services were developed: resolving labour complaints and notifying the ministry of workforce reductions.
