An AI-powered system to match job seekers with employers has been proposed in Parliament to help boost employment for Bahrainis.

Led by MP Dr. Munir Seroor, the proposal advocates for a national employment database driven by artificial intelligence. The system would match vacancies with candidates based on their skills and qualifications.

Dr. Seroor believes AI can also inform policies on reserving jobs for Bahrainis, as long as reliable data is available. He emphasized that without solid figures, businesses would continue to opt for cheaper foreign workers.

If approved, the AI system would act as an efficient matching tool, helping to align workers with job opportunities. Dr. Seroor pointed to the success of similar systems in other countries, urging Bahrain to adopt the technology before the gap between local and foreign workers grows wider.
