The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development has introduced the Developed Nitaqat Program, strategically designed to encourage private sector establishments to attract national talents, empower local capabilities, and drive their sustainable participation in the labor market. The program is systematically structured into two strategic phases; the first phase commenced in 2022, followed by the current second phase in 2026 to reinforce institutional localization rates and enhance employment outcomes.

Official milestones reveal that while the phase one initial target was 340,000 jobs, the program successfully outperformed expectations by generating over 550,000 actual jobs. This major advancement creates a significant impact on lowering unemployment rates and advancing national capabilities across the private sector landscape. 

At SBBS Business Solutions Company, we emphasize that transitioning into Phase II of the Developed Nitaqat program during 2026 presents new criteria requiring businesses to dynamically optimize their operational frameworks. Maintaining premium Nitaqat tiers (such as Green or Platinum) extends beyond legal adherence; it serves as a critical indicator of corporate governance and institutional sustainability, which significantly boosts market valuation and attracts major regional investors. 

SBBS stands ready as an integrated growth partner guiding private sector enterprises and expanding companies across our core markets (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Oman, and Bahrain) to adapt seamlessly to shifting regulatory environments. Through our "Sustainability & Institutional Readiness Cluster," we enable businesses to align with strict governance frameworks and labor compliance models. This is perfectly synchronized with our "Market Entry & Initiation Cluster" to help expanding regional or international firms build solid, compliant corporate structures right from inception, ensuring long-term operational scaling.
