DOHA: As part of efforts to effectively implement the Qatarisation drive, Qatar Central Bank (QCB) has ordered all banks to submit a list of their employees every year, a local Arabic daily reported yesterday.
The banking sector regulator has asked all banks (conventional as well as Shariah-compliant lenders) to provide details of Qatari and non-Qatari staff to assess the percentage of Qatari employees in the total workforce of the banks.
According to Articles No. 1 to 8 of QCB, all banks are required to implement and achieve Qatarisation targets, especially with regard to top level management jobs such as general manager and others. As per the laws of QCB, the human resource manager of any banks has to be a Qatari and the post cannot be filled with a non-Qatari in any circumstances, said Al Watan.
