UN: Saudi females labor market contribution rises to 35 percent in 5 years
(MENAFN) The stake of females participating in Saudi Arabia rose from 21 percent to reach 35 percent in five years on the back of the Kingdom’s attempts to grow contribution in the labor market.
The numbers were issued by Saudi Human Rights Commission President Hala Al-Tuwaijri at the 52nd session of the UN’s Human Rights Council.
Al-Tuwaijri also highlighted the positive advancement established by the nation in the empowerment of females whereas moving towards their planned targets of Vision 2030, quoting the Gender Balance Centre in Riyadh which was created two years ago to rise contribution rates in the labor market.
The achievements are “based on the directives of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman and Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman to take care of people and give them priority,” as mentioned by Al-Tuwaijri.
“As a result of these efforts, the share of women in the labor market increased from 21.2 percent to 34.7 percent and the rate of their economic participation jumped from 17 percent to 37 percent during the period between 2017 and 2022,” according to Al-Tuwaijri.
She asserted “the percentage of women’s representation in the higher and middle administrative positions increased from 28.6 percent to 39 percent during the 2017-2021 period.”
