During Mohsin’s presentation, he addressed key employment rights under the Labour Law, issues related to Saudisation and provided an update on some recent developments. With consultancy, retail, education, engineering, construction and manufacturing being some of the main business sectors within BBG the seminar provided a platform to hear from the members around their 2019 objectives and future plans.
