The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development clarified that the implementation of the decision includes exemption from financial payments for 2 of the expatriate workers in the facility if the owner is fully dedicated to working in it and registered in social insurance.
Furthermore, the decision includes exemption from financial payments for 4 of the expatriate workers in the facility if the owner is fully dedicated to working in it and registered in social insurance, in addition to the presence of at least one dedicated Saudi worker registered in social insurance (other than the owner).
