Kuwait today is at a turning point. The country sits between tradition and transformation, with economic reforms, digital adoption, and workforce changes reshaping how businesses operate. For companies looking to grow—whether locally or across borders—traditional outsourcing models no longer provide enough flexibility. They need practical, integrated solutions that keep them compliant, cost-efficient, and ready to scale. This is where Sanad Business Solutions steps in.
Kuwait’s labor market is unique. The country reported an unemployment rate of just 2.1% in late 2023, with labor force participation at 71.5%. Yet over 78% of the workforce are expatriates—a figure that underscores how reliant the private sector is on international talent.
At the same time, participation from Kuwaiti nationals in the private sector slipped, falling by about 1,475 employees between 2023 and 2024. Public sector employment, on the other hand, increased, climbing from 397,690 to 400,815 nationals in the same period.
Add to that Kuwait’s booming ICT sector, worth $22.5 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $39.8 billion by 2028, and it becomes clear: businesses in Kuwait are operating in an environment of fast-moving change.
The challenge for companies is twofold—manage a diverse, mobile workforce and keep up with technological disruption.
These challenges aren’t unique to Kuwait. Worldwide, businesses are rethinking how they manage people and operations:
