Urgent Call for Kuwaitization: Civil Service Commission Seeks Full Nationalization

 
 
 

In a recent statement to Al-Anbaa, sources underscored the pressing need to accelerate efforts towards Kuwaitizing the administration of the Civil Service Commission. Currently, the Commission Affairs Department employs 14 individuals, of whom 8 are non-Kuwaiti.

This initiative aligns with the Civil Service Commission's mandate for all ministries, government agencies, and institutions to achieve complete Kuwaitization of their workforce.

Sources elaborated that the Kuwaitization drive involves assigning tasks to qualified individuals based on their competency and experience in relevant fields. These measures are expected to enhance effectiveness and efficiency, instill confidence in job performance, promote discipline and responsibility, and mitigate the risks of corruption and wastage.

In a related development, the Civil Service Commission has approved the renewal of granting annual financial bonuses, not monthly bonuses, to members of the Legal Department at Kuwait Municipality. These bonuses are equivalent to the grades received by members of the Fatwa and Legislation Department for the fiscal year 2023-2024.

According to the commission's approval obtained by Al-Anbaa, annual remuneration for director and deputy director positions is set at 18 thousand dinars, aligning with positions in the Fatwa and Legislation Department. Similarly, rewards of 12 thousand dinars and 8,000 dinars have been allocated for advisor and assistant advisor positions, respectively, mirroring positions in the "Fatwa and Legislation" department and corresponding roles in the general salary scale.
